Brandon Morrow Throws Bullpen Saturday
6 years agoChicago Cubs closer Brandon Morrow (biceps) threw 25 pitches off a mound on Saturday and said he hasn't lost strength in his arm. He is categorizing his injury as a "bone bruise" and "stress reaction." The right-hander is likely to need two to three more bullpen sessions before going on a rehab assignment. That means he probably won't be able to return to the team until September. Pedro Strop has been excellent in Morrow's absence, but Morrow figures to regain the closer gig when he's healthy.
