Pablo López Sidelined Six Months Before Throwing Clearance
The Twins starter was unable to play catch for half a year, suggesting a serious upper-body injury that kept him off the mound.

Pablo López was cleared to play catch only after a six-month wait, pointing to a prolonged arm or shoulder injury recovery. During that time he took on informal roles within the Twins organization rather than rehabbing on the field. The timeline suggests he missed a substantial portion of the season. His current status relative to a return to pitching is not explicitly confirmed in the article.
