WARRIORS GIANTS CURRY ENJOYING HIS Cueto hopeful RETURN TO HOMETOWN for late ‘19 return By Kerry Crowley Bay Area News Group

SCOTTSDALE, ARIZ. >> As Johnny Cueto sat in front of his locker Thursday, the Giants pitcher rolled up a sock and began flip- ping it in the air with his right hand. Six months ago, Cueto couldn’t do that. Six months from now, Cueto hopes his surgically re- paired right elbow will allow him to return to a major league mound. The recovery process from Tommy John surgery is grueling, tiresome and often lonely. Cue- to’s is no exception. “Right now I feel like I’m ready but I know I’m not,” Cueto said through Spanish-language trans- lator Erwin Higueros. “My frus- tration was at the beginning when I couldn’t move the arm to take a shower and everything. But right now I feel like any other pitcher.” Under the best of circum - stances, pitchers return to ac- tion 12 months after undergo- ing the operation that repairs the ulnar collateral ligament in the elbow.
