LOS ANGELES -- Injured starting pitchers Brandon McCarthy and Hyun-jin Ryu continue to inch closer to a minor league rehab assignment. It was McCarthy's turn on Monday to throw a bullpen session on the mound at Dodger Stadium, several hours before the Dodgers series opener against the Mets.
"Brandon looked really good," manager Dave Roberts said. "Velocity was good, I think he got up to 89 with his fastball. He was throwing fastball, change, breaking ball, cutter for three innings."
