Brandon Webb

Nick Cafardo of the Boston Globe reports that the Red Sox have “no plans” to watch Brandon Webb at his workout, whenever that may be.

Webb has been throwing on flat ground and is reportedly “free and easy and pain free.” He’s expected to throw off a mound for scouts of interested teams before long, but it sounds like the Red Sox won’t be among those in attendance. The former Cy Young winner has made one appearance in the majors over the last three years due to shoulder woes, but he hasn’t given up on a comeback.

Brandon Webb has begun throwing on flat ground.

Webb’s agent told ESPN’s Buster Olney that the veteran right-hander’s recent throwing sessions have been “free and easy and pain free.” Webb is expected to throw for scouts from interested teams at some point soon and will be looking to land an invitation to a major league camp. The 32-year-old former Cy Young Award winner hasn’t appeared in a big league game since 2009.

Brandon Webb hasn’t given up on returning to MLB.

Webb hasn’t appeared in a major league game since 2009, and underwent rotator cuff surgery in August. But the 32-year-old right-hander is expected to work out for teams in March and could draw some interest on a non-guaranteed minor league contract.

Jon Heyman of CBSSports.com reports that Brandon Webb (shoulder) began a throwing program in late December and his agent, Jonathan Maurer, said his client’s arm feels “strong and loose.”

Webb, who hasn’t appeared in a MLB game the last two seasons and appeared in just one in 2009, underwent rotator cuff surgery in August. Someone will likely be willing to offer him a minor league deal, but the odds of the former Cy Young winner ever being an impactful player again are slim.
