Orioles pitcher Kevin Gausman (shoulder) is hoping to pitch five innings during a rehab start for Double-A Bowie on Thursday, per The Baltimore Sun. He will have a 65-pitch limit.
Gausman said he feels physically fine and is probably ready to return after Thursday's start, but he will probably need one more outing after Thursday to get his pitch count up.
Gausman tossed three scoreless innings on Saturday for Class A Frederick, allowing one hit and no walks. He struck out four, while throwing 32 of 40 pitches for strikes.
