Guys, it's possible Stroman can be pitching in September.

The Brewers right-hander Yovani Gallardo was 22 when he tore his right A.C.L. covering first base on May 1, 2008. Gallardo said he was told he would miss the rest of the season. Yet with Milwaukee pushing for the playoffs, he returned that Sept. 25, and started Game 1 of the National League division series. He said he did not do extra work beyond his regular rehabilitation.
“I kind of surprised myself, that I was able to return and make starts,” Gallardo said. “The training staff did a great job. I don’t think I had enough energy to double up on everything; the rehab is really tough. You’ve just got to go get it done.”

Gallardo tore his May 1st. That's a month into the season and 2 months later than Stroman's. Stroman could conceivably come back earlier than September.
