According to a press release from the White Sox, Farquhar is resting at home with his family and his neurosurgeon expects him to pitch again.
“Dr. Demetrius Lopes,” the release reads, “… expects Danny to be able to pitch again in the future, but Dr. Lopes will not medically release Farquhar to pitch in a competitive game during the 2018 season in order to allow him to fully recover from the brain hemorrhage.”
It was also noted that Farquhar and his family have appreciated all of the kind thoughts and sympathy cards sent their way.
Farquhar was part of a struggling bullpen before his frightening injury that sparked a wave of concern throughout Major League Baseball. He will end the 2018 season with a 5.63 earned run average over eight innings of work, but he will also close the season with his health.
