MILWAUKEE -- D-backs starter Taijuan Walker has nearly recovered from a blister on his right index finger, but manager Torey Lovullo said the club is being cautious in rushing his return to the mound.
"We're right in the middle of determining what the next part of this game plan is," Lovullo said Sunday. "We're close to be able to saying it's all systems go, so if we have to wait a little bit longer to make sure it doesn't go longer, we're going to take that time. Those things are tough, because you're going to use it for 90 to 100 pitches, you can irritate it very quickly.
