Scouting Report: Drew Strotman
Chicago Cubs | SP
Overall
Summary
Drew Pomeranz, 37-year-old left-handed reliever for the Los Angeles Angels, was placed on the 15-day injured list on May 13, 2026, due to left elbow inflammation. The injury likely occurred during Tuesday's game against Cleveland when he pitched 1.0 inning in relief. Pomeranz has struggled significantly in 2026 with a 7.20 ERA and 1.733 WHIP through 17 appearances and 15.0 innings pitched, marking a career-worst performance. This contrasts sharply with his 2025 season with the Cubs (2.17 ERA) and his career 3.87 ERA. The elbow inflammation is a serious concern for any pitcher and raises questions about his ability to contribute effectively upon return.
