Rays pitcher Matt Moore (elbow) threw off a mound Sunday for the first time since his injury. The left-hander threw 50 pitches and has nearly reached game-speed velocity, pitching coach Jim Hickey told MLB.com. He is scheduled to throw another bullpen session Tuesday.
"That's in a perfect world, if everything goes well Tuesday and Wednesday," Moore said. "Still, [I] just [have to] continue with the same regimen as far as treatment goes. Today it was really just a great conditioning day for my shoulder, my lat, all the baseball-specific muscles. And I didn't feel like I got tired at the end of it. And it was a good workday."
