Playing in a game for the first time in nearly 17 months, Fernando Tatis, Jr. says his shoulder and wrist are finally fully healthy.

He was the designated hitter in his first game since the 2021 regular-season finale.

"I saw that it was 500 or something days since I was out there," Tatis said. "Since the beginning of spring I thought about this."

He missed all of last season. He was about to come back from wrist surgery when he was suspended on Aug. 12 for 80 games after testing positive for a performance-enhancing drug. He had surgery on his troublesome shoulder during the suspension.

"The shoulder and wrist are 100%," Tatis said Tuesday. "Everything feels good."

With 20 games left to serve on his suspension, Tatis won't be eligible to play in the regular season until at least April 20.
