디트로이트 타이거스의 에이스 타릭 스쿠발이 팔꿈치 수술 후 회복 과정에서 또 하나의 진전을 보였다. 이 좌완 투수는 수술을 받은 지 2주도 채 되지 않은 시점에서 통증 없이 불펜 투구를 완벽하게 소화했다.
스쿠발은 지난 5월 6일 나노니들(NanoNeedle)이라는 새로운 최소 침습 기법을 사용하여 팔꿈치에서 유리체를 제거하는 수술을 받았다. 그는 수술 이후 두 번째 불펜 투구를 마쳤으며, 회복 경과에 대해 긍정적인 반응을 보였다. 일반적으로 이러한 수술의 회복 기간은 2~3개월이 소요되지만, 이번 수술 방식은 그 기간을 크게 단축할 것으로 기대된다. 스쿠발은 지난 4월 29일에 마지막으로 등판했으며, 그가 결장한 동안 타이거스는 5승 12패를 기록했다. 현재 타이거스는 20승 28패의 성적으로 아메리칸 리그 와일드카드 순위에서 2.5경기 차를 기록하고 있다.
