SEATTLE -- Mariners lefty reliever Charlie Furbush has completed a series of six injections in his Regonkine Therapy treatment, but the 29-year-old was still waiting to learn Friday when he can begin throwing again as he works back from a sore left shoulder that sidelined him most of spring.
Furbush was set to meet with Mariners team physician Ed Khalfayan for an update on his status.
"He'll come up with the game plan, and hopefully I can start throwing soon., hopefully the next week or two," Furbush said. "The early signs feel great."
Once Furbush is cleared to begin playing catch, it's going to take another month or more to build his arm back up by going through the normal series of bullpen sessions, simulated games and likely some Minor League outings.
