Newsbreakers

November 4, 2009

The Atlanta Braves have signed pitcher Scott Proctor to a one-year deal, according to TCPalm.com. Proctor was released by the Marlins in October after missing the entire season due to Tommy John surgery.

Our View:

No word on the specific financial details of the deal, but it appears to be heavily based on incentives. The Braves were very interested in Proctor as soon as he became available, so expect him to contribute of of the bullpen next season.

May 12, 2009

The South Florida Sun-Sentinel is reporting that Scott Proctor is set to undergo Tommy John surgery on his pitching elbow. He had offseason surgery on his elbow, but he suffered a setback in his rehab that required the procedure.

Our View:

Proctor is going to miss all of this season and possibly some of next season. His fantasy value was limited, as it will be if and when he returns from this surgery.

May 6, 2009

Scott Proctor has suffered a setback in his recovery from a sore right elbow, according to MLB.com.

Our View:

Proctor will meet with Dr. James Andrews in Alabama. He has not progressed well from October surgery.

May 4, 2009

Scott Proctor, who is recovering from a sore right elbow, threw a bullpen session Monday, according to the Miami Herald.

Our View:

Proctor could return to the Marlins' bullpen in late-May or early-June. He could work his way into a setup role, but won't hold much fantasy value.

May 2, 2009

Reliever Scott Proctor threw a pain-free bullpen session on Friday, MLBlogs.com reports. He has been out since early in spring training due to a sore right elbow. Proctor remains several weeks away from returning.

Our View:

It's a step in the right direction. The Marlins had pegged Proctor to be a key setup man alongside Leo Nunez, but this injury has set him back. He could be back in the holds mix by late May or early June.

April 12, 2009

Scott Proctor's return to the Marlins has been pushed back, according to the Miami Herald. He is dealing with discomfort following offseason elbow surgery and manager Fredi Gonzalez said, "Best-case scenario with Proctor is the middle of May."

Our View:

If healthy, Proctor would have competed for the setup role in the Marlins' bullpen. He shouldn't hold fantasy value outside of deeper NL-only leagues.

April 6, 2009

MLB.com reports that the second MRI on Scott Proctor's elbow revealed only some inflammation and he has been cleared to resume throwing off of flat ground. His target date to return is May 1.

Our View:

Proctor is a key member of the Marlins bullpen. The veteran was all over the place last season with a 10.71 K/9 rate and 5.59 BB/9 rate. He holds no fantasy value.

April 6, 2009

Scott Proctor is slated for a second MRI on his ailing right elbow today, according to the Miami Herald.

Our View:

Proctor expects to return to the Marlins' bullpen in around a month, if his MRI does not reveal anything new.

April 4, 2009

Scott Proctor has been placed on the 15-day DL by the Marlins due to right elbow discomfort, according to MLB.com. The move is retroactive to March 27.

Our View:

Proctor was competing for a setup role before being hindered by the injury. He expects to return to the bullpen in about a month.

March 30, 2009

Scott Proctor, who is recovering from elbow discomfort, is hoping to return to the mound soon, according to the Miami Herald. He said, "I am champing at the bit, ready to throw. Frustrating? I do not have the words for it."

Our View:

With only one week until opening day, the Marlins need a replacement for the setup role until Proctor is ready to return. Leo Nunez, Logan Kensing, Kiko Calero and Brian Sanches are the top candidates to fill his spot.

March 25, 2009

Scott Proctor, who is recovering from elbow discomfort, is targeting May 1 to return to the Marlins' bullpen, according to the Miami Herald. He said, "I am going to miss the first part of the season, but what we are trying to do is cut down the time it takes to return. May 1 is definitely my target date."

Our View:

Proctor was acquired in December as a free agent to be a key member of the Marlins' bullpen. If healthy, his fantasy value will still be limited.

March 13, 2009

According to the Palm Beach Post, reliever Scott Proctor is set to resume throwing long toss. He is trying to return to the Marlins after being shut down earlier this spring with elbow discomfort.

Our View:

When healthy, Proctor is a strikeout machine, but until he can control all his pitches and lower last year's dreadful 6.05 ERA and 1.68 WHIP he doesn't command any fantasy respect.

March 7, 2009

The Marlins have shut down reliever Scott Proctor due to elbow pain, according to The Miami Herald. He will see a doctor on Sunday.

Our View:

Proctor struck out 46 hitters in 38.2 innings last season but managed a 6.05 ERA and a 1.68 WHIP. Until he shows more control, he does not hold any fantasy value.

March 6, 2009

Scott Proctor, who is dealing with pain in his right elbow, is expected to throw Tuesday or Wednesday, according to the Palm Beach Post. The club believes the pain is related to scar tissue breaking up in his elbow.

Our View:

If healthy, Proctor would only be worth a look for NL-only leagues that feature middle relievers. He fired 46 strikeouts over 38.2 innings in 2008.

February 9, 2009

Scott Proctor could serve as a setup man behind closer Matt Lindstrom with the Marlins this season, according to MLB.com.

Our View:

The veteran righty will help the Marlins after losing Joe Nelson, Doug Waechter and Kevin Gregg from the bullpen, but does not look to hold much fantasy value.

January 6, 2009

Scott Proctor passed his physical and is officially a member of the Marlins, according to ESPN. His one-year deal is worth $750,000 with an additional $250,000 in incentives.

Our View:

Proctor underwent surgery in October to repair a partially torn flexor tendon, but the reliever is expected to be healthy by the start of spring training. The Marlins needed to sign him as they lost Joe Nelson, Doug Waechter and Kevin Gregg from the bullpen.

January 2, 2009

As expected, Scott Proctor has reached a one-year deal with the Marlins worth $750,000, according to the Associated Press. He can earn an additional $250,000 in incentives.

Our View:

The reliever underwent surgery in October to repair a partially torn flexor tendon, but is expected to be healthy by the start of spring training. The club needed to sign him as they already lost Joe Nelson, Doug Waechter and Kevin Gregg from the bullpen.

January 1, 2009

Scott Proctor will sign a contract to join the Marlins, in essence to replace Joe Nelson who signed with the Rays, according to the Miami Herald. The contract is reported to be for $750,000 with $250,000 in incentives.

Our View:

Proctor missed time last season with elbow tendinitis, and he had shoulder surgery in October though he should be ready by spring training. Still, even a healthy Proctor will find it nearly impossible to replace the production the team received from Nelson last season (2.00 ERA, 10.00 K/9).
