Orioles pitcher Jason Hammel threw 60 pitches in the bullpen Sunday, MASNSports.com reports. He is expected to report to Double-A Bowie for Thursday's game against Bighamton.
"As of right now, everything is good to go," Hammel said. "I threw an extra inning's worth of pitches today. I probably threw 45 like I did yesterday, and then after that I did some sequences, throwing all pitches to simulated batters, stuff like that."
Hammel is expected to throw 45-50 pitches Thursday. He will pitch twice in the minors before coming off the DL when rosters expand. He is anticipated to return in relief for the Orioles.
