Alcantara (elbow) said he threw his sixth bullpen session of the season Saturday while throwing at about 75 percent intensity, Isaac Azout of FishOnFirst.com reports.
Alcantara won't be activated from the 60-day injured list this season, but the right-hander looks on pace to enter spring training with few restrictions, if any, as he draws closer to the finish line of his recovery from Oct. 6, 2023 Tommy John surgery. The right-hander will continue to gradually increase the intensity and volume of his bullpen sessions in the coming weeks, and he could be cleared to resume facing hitters in batting practice before the Marlins' season comes to an end Sept. 29.
