Former White Sox reliever Danny Farquhar took the next steps in his recovery Friday when he threw his first major league bullpen session since he underwent surgery on a brain hemorrhage. The hemorrhage was caused by a ruptured aneurysm after he collapsed in Chicago's dugout on April 20 during a game against Houston.
Farquhar underwent surgery the day after his collapse and was released 17 days later. While he was unable to return to the mound during the 2018 season, the Yankees signed the 31-year-old right hander to a minor league contract in late January 2019.
