BOSTON — CC Sabathia, on the injured list with right knee inflammation, threw his first bullpen session since being shut down and the left-hander said the session went well.
“It was a normal bullpen,’’ Sabathia said after the Yankees’ 6-1 loss to the Red Sox on Friday night at Fenway Park. “I felt good. I’m not sure what the next step will be, but I’m ready.”
Aaron Boone was also pleased by the 20-pitch session and didn’t rule out using Sabathia out of the pen if he’s able to return during his final season.
“We’ll consider everything,’’ Boone said.
