Reds starting pitcher Johnny Cueto is still not throwing as part of his recovery from a strained right lat, and according to MLB.com, there is no target date for the beginning of a throwing program.
"He's doing strengthening stuff and building up endurance through exercise, but not throwing," Reds pitching coach Bryan Price said. "I think in his situation, there has to be a definite confidence amongst all medical and training staff that the injury itself is healed and that we can begin the throwing program without huge concern he's going to re-injure it."
Cueto has been on the disabled list since June 29 due to the injury, one that has forced him to the DL three times already. The team has consistently stated that they will take his recovery from the injury slowly, given how many times it has recurred.
