Paul Blackburn faced severe discomfort due to a cerebrospinal fluid leak, causing migraines and bodily sensations. After surgery to address a punctured capsule in his spine, he recovered during the offseason. Although slightly behind in preparation due to the procedure, Blackburn's condition is being closely monitored after fellow teammate Frankie Montas was sidelined with an injury. Blackburn is a strong candidate for a pitching spot due to his lack of minor league options, and he has begun facing hitters in live batting practice, indicating progress in his recovery.
I expect to be ready to go.
He is facing hitters after what he went through in the offseason, that is a big step in the right direction.
