MINNEAPOLIS -- Twins closer Glen Perkins' rehab from his left shoulder surgery has gone according to schedule and he's expected to throw off a mound as early as next week.
Perkins, who underwent surgery to reattach his labrum to the bone in June, spent three weeks rehabbing at the club's Spring Training complex in Fort Myers, Fla., before heading to TwinsFest this weekend. The three-time All-Star will resume his throwing program when he heads back to Florida on Tuesday. He was throwing from about 120 feet at 75 percent intensity last week.
"It's gone well, so far," Perkins said.
