Bieber's Forearm Fatigue: Blue Jays GM Optimistic for Opening Day Return

Shane Bieber dealt with right forearm fatigue late this season, which, along with past Tommy John surgery, influenced his decision to exercise a $16 million player option. Blue Jays GM Ross Atkins stated Bieber is 'in a strong position' and a return for Opening Day is 'a very realistic outcome.' Bieber was the last Toronto hurler in Game 7 of the World Series, giving up a go-ahead home run. Further health updates are anticipated during spring training for the Blue Jays pitcher.
