Cortes (groin) threw 45 pitches during live batting practice Saturday, Brendan Kuty of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.
Cortes threw a bullpen session Wednesday that apparently went well since he was able to face live hitters as expected Saturday. He incorporated all of his pitches during the throwing session and expects to rejoin the Yankees' starting rotation next week.
