I know he's supposed to not go on a rehad assignement and hes' been throwing with the angels so he should return at the end of his DL stint in a week. I'd make the move to pick him and stash him away.

pick him up.

Apr 24 Mike Scarr, of LosAngeles.Angels.MLB.com, reports Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim SP Bartolo Colon (shoulder) will resume throwing Monday, April 24. The team believes that Colon will be ready to off the disabled list Monday, May 1, but they will not push him to come back until he is ready.

Courtesy LATimes.com:

When Bartolo Colon went on the disabled list because of shoulder inflammation, the Angels were confident he would miss two or three starts and be ready when he was eligible to be activated Monday.

That's highly unlikely. Colon began throwing lightly Monday, and the Angels are being very cautious with their ace, who was knocked out of the playoffs in October because of a small shoulder tear.

The plan is for Colon to go from catch to long toss to pitching off a mound. He'll probably throw a simulated game or two, and he may need a minor league rehabilitation stint. The process could take another two weeks, if not more.

"We're not going to put any date" on his return, Scioscia said. "He has to go through a progression. We're confident he'll be able to move forward, but he's only going to do that if he does it the right way."

It looks like it could be mid-May at the earliest.

This whole thing is starting to get a little odd. A different story comes out all the time about when he will be back or even the extent of the injury. I don't like this at all.

Apr. 26 Initial estimates that Bartolo Colon (P) LAA could return from his inflamed shoulder when eligible on Monday no longer appear realistic, according to the LA Times. The Angels are being cautious with their ace. He's expected to play catch, then pitch off a mound before throwing a simulated game or two. Colon may also need a rehab assignment. It could easily be another couple of weeks or more before he's back with the Angels.
