Nolasco fans Castellanos 0:11 4/8/15: Ricky Nolasco strikes out Nick Castellanos swinging with the bases loaded to end the 3rd inning MINNEAPOLIS -- Right-hander Ricky Nolasco, who is on the 15-day disabled list with right elbow inflammation, progressed to throwing off a mound without any issues on Sunday and will start a rehab assignment with Class A Cedar Rapids on Saturday.
Nolasco, on the DL retroactive to April 9, previously played long toss this week before moving on to throwing a bullpen session on Sunday. There's still no exact timetable for his return, but everything went well enough that he's ready to take the next step to make a rehab start.
