Detroit Tigers rookie Beau Brieske hopes to return in 2022 despite 'frustrating' setback

CLEVELAND — Detroit Tigers right-hander Beau Brieske doesn't know when he's going to restart his throwing program.

For now, the 24-year-old is waiting.

"It's frustrating," Brieske said. "I was so close to making my way back. My last rehab start felt really good. I felt sharp and ready. But I had a setback in the bullpen. I could have continued to throw through it, but it would have been a grind to do that."

The Tigers placed Brieske on the 15-day injured list July 21, retroactive to July 18, due to right forearm soreness after he completed six innings July 12.
