Colon's fastball has (95 mph) life

In an update of the previous Bartolo Colon entry, the right-hander hit 95 mph on the Rancho Cucamonga radar gun during his rehab start Thursday. He retired the last 10 batters he faced.

“It was encouraging,” Angels farm director Tony Reagins said. “He was crisp. He was sharp. He threw the ball where he wanted to, when he wanted to. The arm strength was there.”

Said Colon in a statement released through a Quakes spokesperson: “I felt good. I’m looking forward to my next start, whether it’s here or in (Triple-A) Salt Lake.”
