ARLINGTON -- Tim Lincecum postponed a planned bullpen session on Sunday because of continued caution over a blister on his right middle finger. Lincecum has continued his throwing with a soft rubber ball but hasn't been off a mound since Wednesday.
"Just basically treating it day by day and seeing what happens," Lincecum said. "There is no irritation, we just don't want to compound the issue. Physically I feel in shape, but I don't want to compound the finger and set myself back further."
Lincecum has had blister issues in the past but admitted this one is taking longer than expected.
