Right-hander Pete Munro still hopes to pitch for the Revolution this season.
Hampered by a sharp pinching pain in the back of his shoulder when he threw, Munro was examined by team doctors earlier this month. Doctors believe the pain is caused by his shoulder capsule pushing against his labrum. Doctors recommended a stretching program, and told Munro if he didn't notice a change after stretching that he may have a tear in his labrum.
Munro has started the stretching program and threw 20 pitches away from the mound today without pain.
"Right now it feels great," he said. "I've got more range of motion."
And he's not bothered by the Revolution's decision to place him on the DL.
"I thought I was on the DL the whole time," Munro said with a laugh.
