Pomeranz (elbow) threw 35 pitches in two innings of live batting practice and says he feels ready for games next week, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.
The productive session serves as good news ahead of his spring debut, which is slated for next Monday. Pomeranz seems to be on the right path to being ready for Opening Day after having the beginning of his spring delayed by an offseason stem cell injection. The left-hander will likely serve in the back end of the rotation, as he looks to improve upon a 2016 campaign in which he compiled a 4.59 ERA while allowing 14 home runs over 14 games with the Red Sox.
