Tigers pitcher Justin Verlander was given clearance to resume his throwing program Wednesday, the team announced.
Verlander underwent a third MRI earlier in the week on his injured triceps and was given the go ahead from his doctor to throw. Verlander has not pitched in a game yet this season after leaving his final start of spring training with triceps inflammation.
"He's got to start building up his arm strength again," manager Brad Ausmus said, per MLB.com, "basically from ground zero. We'll just have to see how it goes."
