Orioles manager Buck Showalter said the next step is still to be identified for each of right-hander Chris Tillman (shoulder) and closer Zach Britton (side soreness), but the pair each had full-effort bullpen sessions Wednesday and came through them well.
“They just got through back there,” Showalter said. “That went good. So we’ll see what the next step is, so that was a good hurdle to get over. We’ll see how they are tomorrow.”
For Tillman, Showalter said he’s right on the schedule laid out last month that could get him back into the major league rotation in the first week or so of the season.
