Aaron Nola (back) cleared to return Sunday for Philadelphia
Philadelphia Phillies pitcher Aaron Nola (back) has been cleared to return the rotation for Sunday's matchup with the Pittsburgh Pirates.
What It Means:
Nola hasn't pitched since April 20 while dealing with a lower back strain. He threw 6 1/3 innings of issue-free shutout ball in a rehab start with Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Monday night.
The 23-year-old right-hander has made just three starts in the majors in 2017, posting a 3.84 SIERA, 21.7 percent strikeout rate and 1.63 WHIP through 16 innings.
