ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) Tampa Bay Rays pitching prospect Brent Honeywell had a decompression procedure on his right ulnar nerve and is set to begin strength and mobility exercises.

Dodgers head team physician Dr. Neal ElAttrache performed the procedure on the 25-year-old right-hander in Los Angeles on Wednesday, working with Dr. Steven Shin to remove scar tissue from the area of the nerve.

Honeywell, who hasn't pitched in the minors since September 2017, is scheduled to start exercises on Monday at the Rays' spring training complex in Port Charlotte.
