Summary
DJ Herz is making a triumphant comeback after 17 months of Tommy John recovery, tossing two and two-thirds innings in a rehab start with the Single-A FredNats—allowing just one run. The Nationals pitcher, who debuted in the majors last season and was once a rotation contender, is steadily building his strength and innings, moving up from Rookie-level rehab. Manager Blake Butera praised his progress, and with a positive outlook and relentless work ethic, Herz is poised for a strong return to the big leagues.
