Koki's article also provides an update on Neal's shoulder injury.

When asked about the possibility of right-hander Chase Shores returning to pitch from Tommy John surgery this season, Johnson said on Monday, "that would surprise me."
"I had a good meeting with him last night when we returned home of just where we're at," Johnson said. "(He) threw a good bullpen up there at Missouri.
"It doesn't feel like it's gonna be what's best for him to get him back (this year)."
A month ago, Johnson said that LSU toyed with the idea of bringing him back this season by having him throw just one or two pitches in games instead of allowing him to throw his entire arsenal of pitches but decided against it.
"But then you have to look at the back half of what the rehab looks like. Does that slow down his rehab? Well, I think we all know what the ceiling and talent level of that young man is," Johnson said. "And what we need for him to do in 2025 is you know, throw more than two innings a week.
"He is progressing great. I just don't know that it's in his best interest to do that."
Shores has been sidelined since last April when he underwent his surgery. He posted a 1.96 ERA in 18? innings last season as a freshman.

Not a huge surprise to anyone who's been paying attention. Onward and upward. Hopefully he's 100% ready for fall ball.

I’m glad the staff is letting him get 100% healthy even if he never pitches for us again, don’t ruin his future to rush back for college pitching.

Ell said he would be pitching in Mid-March

Shores and Johnson as your 1 and 2 will look really good next year, is all I know.

No reason to let him rush back and possibly have a setback, get him ready for the fall.
