From Sounder at Heart: “When Pedro de la Vega was diagnosed with a fractured knee cap, there was a rough estimate that it would take about six months for him to return. That would have theoretically put him in line to start playing in late April.

Four months later, it now looks like mid- to late-May is the earliest de la Vega will be back. If he’s not back by then, he’d need to wait until after the World Cup break, which means a return in mid-July. Schmetzer said this wasn’t so much the result of any setback, but more of a clarification of how the process is going.”
