The Tigers announced Tuesday that Matt Vierling (shoulder) has been cleared to begin a return-to-play throwing program, reports Evan Woodbery of MLive.com. Vierling, who is recovering from a right shoulder strain suffered early in spring, had already resumed hitting and non-throwing defensive work. (Evan Woodbery)

Fantasy Impact:

Starting to throw is a key step for Vierling (shoulder). He still requires build-up and a rehab assignment, likely targeting a late April/early May return best-case. A near-everyday role awaits, so continue stashing him on IL.
