Michael Pineda Throws Bullpen Monday, Will Throw Again Friday
6 years agoMinnesota Twins starting pitcher Michael Pineda (elbow) threw a 50-pitch bullpen with a hitter standing in on Monday and plans to throw another session on Friday. Pineda will then go back to Fort Myers for a few live bullpen sessions. Assuming everything goes right a rehab assignment could start around August 1st. Pineda is about a week away from the one year anniversary of having Tommy John surgery and it seems like the standard timeline is in line. Pineda will have to have all of these sessions go smoothly along with multiple rehab starts before returning.
