Remains on schedule Lamet's (elbow) throwing program remains on schedule, Annie Heilbrunn of the San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
Impact Lamet missed the end of the regular season and the entirety of the playoffs due to an elbow injury, a rather disappointing conclusion to a campaign which had seen the righty produce a 2.09 ERA and 0.86 WHIP in 12 starts in his first full season back from Tommy John surgery. He's so far avoided surgery this time around, and his platelet-rich plasma treatment appears to be having the desired effect, but his injury history means the Padres will have to continue to manage his recovery carefully.

Set to avoid offseason surgery Padres general manager A.J. Preller said Wednesday that Lamet (elbow) isn't expected to require offseason surgery, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
Impact Lamet and Mike Clevinger (elbow) both ended up finishing the Padres' playoff run in the training room, but the two starting pitchers are expected to treat their respective injuries with rest and rehab this winter rather than having to go under the knife. Before being left off the postseason roster for the wild-card and NLDS rounds, Lamet was at least able to throw off flat ground, so he's at least made progress on some level since exiting his final start Sept. 25 with the elbow injury. Expect Lamet to gradually ramp up his throwing program throughout the winter with the aim of being back to 100 percent for spring training.

Undergoing elbow treatment Lamet began platelet-rich plasma therapy on his right elbow Monday, Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
Impact Lamet missed the playoffs due to an issue which had been referred to as biceps tightness, though the injury is apparently located in his elbow. He reportedly has no ligament issues, however, and is expected to be ready to pitch by the start of spring training. Still, the fact that he's dealing with elbow problems again after previously undergoing Tommy John surgery in 2018 undoubtedly adds some risk to his profile heading into next season.

Still option for wild card Lamet (biceps) could be ready to pitch Game 1 or Game 2 of the NL Wild Card Series against the Cardinals, Bob Nightengale of USA Today reports.
Impact Lamet played light catch Saturday after he was removed from his final start of the regular season with biceps tightness. The right-hander still hasn't been officially cleared to start in the Padres' first series of the playoffs, but the team remains optimistic that Lamet and Mike Clevinger (elbow) could each be available to start. Chris Paddack and Zach Davies are candidates to start in the series.

Playing light catch Lamet (biceps) will play light catch Saturday, and manager Jayce Tingler remains optimistic that he'll be able to pitch in San Diego's first postseason game, Dennis Lin of The Athl...
Impact Lamet reportedly felt slightly better Saturday than he normally does the day after a start. Assuming his throwing session Saturday goes well, the right-hander could throw a bullpen sometime in the next two days. The team didn't feel as though he needed an MRI after leaving Friday's contest with tightness in his bicep. Tingler said that Lamet still has "a long ways to go" before he's cleared to pitch in Game 1, but early reports regarding his status are encouraging.
