06/07: Bruney, Marte and Nady Improving
Posted by: Patrick
Colin Stephenson of The Star-Ledger reports on the progress of Brian Bruney, Damaso Marte and Xavier Nady.
On Friday, Bruney had a bullpen session in which he threw 20 pitches and indicated that he had no pain. He was reluctant to set a date for his return, but ended up saying he might be out for a week and a half.
Marte had a bullpen session, as well, and threw 25 pitches, including some sliders. Not much detail was provided, so it must have gone according to plan.
Finally, Nady played in an extended spring game and threw from 75 feet. Girardi says that it's a "good sign," but that the team needs to get him throwing from farther back.
