Rays pitcher Drew Smyly is behind schedule this spring while recovering from a finger injury that kept him out of workouts for much of the winter, reports the Tampa Bay Times.
The team is staying cautious with Smyly, and he doesn't know when exactly he will pitch. For now, Smyly is tentatively scheduled to throw a simulated game Monday and make his spring debut Saturday against the Orioles. It would allow him up to five spring training starts.
