Oakland Athletics LHP Dallas Braden has suffered a setback in his recovery from shoulder surgery with a left shoulder strain. The strain was suffered while he was playing catch following a bullpen session before the team traveled to Japan to open the season against Seattle. Before the setback, Braden was expected to return by May.
The 28-year-old Braden underwent left shoulder surgery last May to repair a torn capsule after going 1-1 with a 3.00 ERA in three starts. He went 11-14 with a 3.50 ERA in 30 starts in 2010. Braden was on a throwing program this Spring, but had yet to appear in an exhibition game.
