Lester getting his work in
BALTIMORE — Jon Lester is throwing in the bullpen now, the longer-than-normal side session designed to test the soundness of his body after the lat strain he suffered earlier this month.
Pitching coach Curt Young is running the operation with head athletic trainer Mike Reinold watching closely along with vice president of baseball operation Brian O'Halloran.
Based on watching from the press box, Lester seems to be doing fine. He is scheduled to start on Monday.
