Alcantara (elbow) threw a 40-pitch up-and-down bullpen session Saturday, MLB.com reports.
Alcantara began throwing off a mound July 24 and has steadily increased the volume and intensity of his bullpen sessions. While the Marlins aren't entertaining the possibility of Alcantara pitching in 2024, he could resume facing hitters at some point in September and looks on track to enter spring training with few restrictions, if any. Alcantara has been on the shelf all season while recovering from Oct. 6 Tommy John surgery.
