Yea that's what I was thinking too. Is this based on anything you've directly heard from people in the know weams? Or are you just pontificating?

Wieters is throwing now and swinging a bat so I'd be surprised if he's not in spring games sometime soon.

Any news that is prompting this thread? I'd be a bit surprised if Wieters starts the season on the DL unless he has had a setback that I haven't heard about.

He still is not catching or throwing and chose not to DH today. He is doing bullpens though according to Roch.

Neither. Just asking the question based on Roch's news this am. I have no knowledge. Pena is starting again today so I was only guessing. Since Wieters in in no games at all.

BRADENTON, Fla. - Catcher Matt Wieters stayed back in Sarasota this morning to catch bullpen sessions with Chris Tillman and Yovani Gallardo. He was a consideration to serve as the designated hitter here today against the Pirates.

"I think tomorrow's on the table, too," Wieters said. "I think it came down to actually feeling like I can get a little bit more work in here than going and taking three at-bats. I'll get to catch Gallardo and Tillman's bullpen today and just get back behind the plate and get the legs there a little bit and work on some things hitting-wise from yesterday."

More importantly, Wieters threw from 90 feet yesterday and reported that his right elbow felt good. No setbacks since he left a March 12 game after one inning with soreness in the elbow.

News on Matt
