Battling elbow troubles again Honeywell is dealing with an olecranon stress reaction in the back of his right elbow and has been shut down from throwing indefinitely, Matt Kawahara of the San Francisco Chronicl... Impact Honeywell was a very exciting prospect a few years ago but simply hasn't been able to stay healthy. He missed three straight seasons from 2018 to 2020 while dealing with elbow troubles, though he was able to get back on the field last season and made his MLB debut, throwing 4.1 innings at the highest level. He looked like he had a chance to break camp with the Athletics this season but will now be sidelined yet again. It's unclear when he'll return, but it looks as though he'll miss an extended period. Honeywell has requested renowned surgeon Dr. Neal ElAttrache to take a look at scans of his elbow, so more clarity on the righty's recovery timeline could arrive in the coming days, according to Kawahara.
