The San Francisco Giants have had a rough season so far, and it didn't make things better when Logan Webb was placed on the injured list at the beginning of the month because of a knee injury. The good news is that the injury doesn't appear to be serious, and there's a chance that he can return to the field sooner rather than later.

The Giants received even more good news, as the latest update showed that he was making progress .
"Webb is about to go throw a bullpen session!" Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle wrote on X, formerly Twitter.
Webb may still have to check off a few things before he comes back, but getting in a bullpen session means he's trending in the right direction.
Just a few days ago, Dr. Marc Safran spoke to NBC Sports Bay Area's Taylor With about the kind of injury that Webb was dealing with .
"Bursitis stands for inflammation, if you will," Safran said. "It's inflammation of the bursae. A bursae is kind of like a water balloon that has a little bit of fluid in it, kind of like oily fluid that lets the tendon or soft tissue slide past the bone without undue friction. So it just kind of helps it glide around, and sometimes it can get inflamed from any number of causes and the inflammation is the bursitis that causes some pain and some swelling."

Hopefully, the injury is something that Webb doesn't have any long-term effects from , and he can continue playing at a high level. The Giants are going to need it, as they're currently 18-27 and are in fourth place in the NL East.
