Calero is trying to return from a torn rotator cuff by opting against surgery, a road rarely taken with a shoulder, but we don't give him much of a chance to make a significant impact in any Fantasy league in 2008. Ignore him at this point in everything but the deepest of AL-only leagues that use true middle men. (Updated 05/12/2008).
Calero has started an extended spring training session with fellow hurlers Keith Foule and Rich Harden. (Updated 05/04/2008)
