Summary
Tanner Houck is on the verge of a major comeback, set to begin a rehab assignment with Double-A Portland next week after a strong recovery from Tommy John surgery. His recent scrimmage performance in Fort Myers was promising, and with a 30-day window to decide his MLB fate, Houck is positioning himself for a potential playoff role. Once an All-Star with elite stats and dominance before his injury, he’s showing signs of returning to form — and could become a vital bullpen weapon if he pitches like he did before the surgery. The next few weeks will be critical as fans watch him reclaim his place on the big stage. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
