It was encouraging.\"","spin":"If MacAllister can get back to a semi-regular throwing program he may be able to knock a few days off of his recovery program and not have to build back as much of his arm strength as a result. He still figures to need at least one rehab appearance once he's back to full health though so don't expect him back before the end of the month at the earliest.","date":"Tue Jun 18"},"fullName":"Zach McAllister","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"After turning in passable, near-the-American League-averages ratios in a 22-start stint for the 2012 club -- he had better numbers in terms of strikeout-to-walk ratio, FIP and wins above replacement than teammate Ubaldo Jimenez! -- McAllister has a leg up on one of two rotation vacancies for the Indians this spring. That doesn't mean he's much of a fantasy asset, though, even if he wins one. McAllister lacks elite stuff, and he keeps the ball up too much, as his 1.36 home runs per nine innings shows. He could be streamed, more so in AL-only formats than mixed, in the right spots. But don't expect much more.","seasonId":2013,"date":"Thu Feb 21"},"playerRater30DAY":-3,"positionRank":83}
