All thumbs

Can you give three thumbs up? Jered Weaver would if he could after a 50-pitch simulated game this afternoon. Weaver mixed in some breaking balls to batters for the first time as he faced Kendry Morales, Nick Gorneault and Curtis Pride. It went so well (even after home runs by Morales and Gorneault) that Weaver is now aimed for an outing Tuesday in a camp game. He will throw 45 pitches in that contest. It still didn’t change his schedule, though, as Weaver isn’t expected to make his season debut until a series at Boston April 13-16.
