The Cardinals have had the best pitching staff in baseball for most of the season and it appears they may be getting even stronger in the near future.
Right-hander Jordan Walden has been out since late Paril with inflammation in his biceps, but he will throw a bullpen session on Monday, a big step in the right direction.
“Very encouraging,” Cardinals manager Mike Matheny told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. “You can tell he’s getting stronger. He’s getting closer.”
Walden is scheduled to throw three bullpen sessions this week and then hopes to go on a rehab assignment shortly thereafter.
