Koji Uehara threw live batting practice today, using only his fastball and showing good command of the lower part of the strike zone.
"He was down, he had some finish and he looked strong,'' said Dave Trembley.
It'll be interesting to see if he changes the way he mixes his pitches in a relief role as opposed to being a starter. Trembley doesn't expect him to change his style. He just wants to see the great command and the good health.
"He's strikethrower,'' Trembley said.
