Price progressing, throws 30 pitches on side

BOSTON -- The momentum continues to build for David Price. The Red Sox lefty threw a 30-pitch side session on Wednesday, and he will add a higher volume on Saturday provided there is no soreness in the next couple of days.

"It feels good. It's easy so it's good," Price said.

Price is in the process of returning from a left elbow strain he sustained on Feb. 28.

Another test will come when Price starts throwing breaking balls off the mound. He has already been doing so on flat ground.

"Different throw," Price said of breaking stuff.
