Wheeler (elbow) resumed throwing Monday, Adam Rubin of ESPN.com reports.
Wheeler was able to throw from 90 feet on flat ground. This is very much a relief, as Wheeler had recently been experiencing elbow discomfort. However, that was diagnosed as nerve irritation, which shouldn't be a major setback as he recovers from Tommy John surgery. The Mets are in no rush to bring Wheeler back into their rotation and are expecting him to return sometime in August.
