An impingement in his left hip made it impossible for Mesoraco to catch in a game after April 12, leaving him to only pinch-hitting and being a designated hitter. After all other therapy alternatives were exhausted, Mesoraco had season-ending surgery in late June.
Recovery and rehabilitation was expected to take at least four months.
"It's great. Everything is going as planned," Mesoraco said. "The range of motion all feels very good."
Mesoraco has been doing agility drills and other exercises. He has yet to do any squatting in the catcher's position.
"I can do half squats," he said.
