The Sports Xchange reports that Padres SP Mark Prior threw a bullpen session Sunday morning at Petco Park and came away feeling good -- mentally as well as physically. But he can't project when he'll be able to pitch. "I'm not alone," said Prior. "There is no rehab precedent for the type of surgery I had. I had a combination of a couple things done. It's about getting healthy. I want to get back into pitching situations. But if I'm not healthy, there are no more situations." Neither Prior nor the Padres are talking in terms of June 1 anymore, although they are optimistic there is light coming down the tunnel. (Updated 04/28/2008).
Injury Report
Shoulder - 60-day DL. Out until at least late June (Updated - 4/28/08)
Fantasy Analysis
Prior is still owned in nine percent of leagues, which shows that some of you folks still have faith that the oft-injured pitcher will return before the end of the season. Good luck with that. He is probably worth holding on to in deeper NL-only formats, but not much more. (Updated 04/28/2008).
