From
the official site:
Rivera threw about 30 pitches in a bullpen session before Saturday's doubleheader, reporting no problems with the mild muscle strain in his right forearm. The closer didn't throw at 100 percent strength for the entire session, but aired it out at the end. ...
"I felt fine," Rivera said through a team spokesman. "I felt great." ...
If Rivera has no setbacks, he will throw another bullpen session on Tuesday in Toronto, then resume his regular throwing routine on Wednesday. He could get into a game as early as Friday, when the Yankees open a series against Tampa Bay.
