Manaea (groin) will throw a side session Monday, Joe Stiglich of CSN California reports.
This is very reassuring, as this development seems to show that his groin issue is fairly minor, although that should b clearer after the session concludes. If all goes well with the side session, Manaea is expected to appear in a minor league game toward the end of the week, which could have him on track to be ready for the start of the regular season.
