Japanese pitcher Tsuyoshi Wada, who is working his way back from Tommy John surgery, threw a short bullpen session off the half-mound on Monday and looked very comfortable. He appeared to be throwing at about 70 or 80 percent velocity.
Wada injured his elbow last spring and is not expected to be major league ready until May or June, but the Orioles are admittedly being very conservative with their projection of his possible return from surgery.
