Hoerner (elbow) is set to play for Mesa in the Arizona Fall League, Mark Gonzales of the Chicago Tribune reports.
The 21-year-old was shut down with a ligament strain in his left elbow but is set to compete in the tuneup league to continue his prospect development. In three low-level farm stops this season before he was deactivated in July, Hoerner went .327 (16-for-49) with two doubles, two triples, two home runs and six stolen bases, with his last stop coming at Low-A South Bend.
