Bruney encouraged by today’s bullpen session

Via Marc Carig, injured reliever Brian Bruney took what he called a “huge positive step” today, throwing 30 pitches in a bullpen session. He again reiterated that he feels no pain in his elbow. Bruney expects to throw a similar bullpen session when the team goes to Boston on Tuesday. Even though he hasn’t been able to do upper body work since the injury, Bruney says his arm strength is just fine, and that’s all that matters.
