Angels reliever Huston Street cleared to resume throwing Tuesday

ANAHEIM – The medical news was very good for reliever Huston Street on Friday, a positive first step after a month-long layoff because of a strained lat muscle suffered during a Cactus League game March 3. Street said he would resume light throwing Tuesday.

“We had been doing some pretty aggressive exercises, so we felt confident the muscle was at least healing,” Street said before the Angels faced the Dodgers in a Freeway Series exhibition game at Angel Stadium. “We’ve been working the area and the tissue around it pretty consistently.”

It means Cam Bedrosian is likely to be the team’s opening-day closer and Street will begin the season Monday on the 10-day disabled list, as expected.
