Tigers starter Justin Verlander, who is recovering from a triceps injury that caused him to miss the start of the season, will pitch a simulated game Wednesday, per MLive.com.
Verlander threw bullpen sessions on Friday and Sunday and reported no pain from his triceps.
"Really good," Verlander said to MLB.com, "about as well as I could've expected. I didn't really feel anything at all, so just keep moving forward. It's a day-by-day thing, has been this whole time. Today I was able to throw a good bullpen. I didn’t feel anything. So next step is a simulated game."
The Tigers plan was to have Verlander throw a simulated game before coming off the disabled list, and his performance Wednesday may indicate when he will come off the DL.
