Chris Ray pitched in a simulated game on Wednesday, but he isn't close to being ready for real action. "He'll just continue his throwing program and mound progression," manager Dave Trembley informs the Baltimore Sun. "He has not been slowed down." Ray is coming off Tommy John surgery, and he aims to be back to the majors by late August or early September. The Orioles say they are being conservative and aren't counting on him to return this season.

February 26, 2008
Chris Ray, coming back from Tommy John surgery, expanded his throwing program Monday to include 25 tosses from 60 feet to go along with 25 tosses from 45 feet. "I'm just sticking to the schedule," Ray said in the Baltimore Sun. "I'm not sure when the next jump is, but I'll probably be on this a few more times. I feel really good. I'm pleased how my elbow is feeling right now." Ray hopes to pitch for the O's at some point this season, but he may not go back to his closer role until 2009. George Sherrill is the favorite to open the year as the team's stopper.
February 16, 2008
Chris Ray threw on Friday for the first time since undergoing Tommy John surgery last August. "I think that kind of made everybody's day," manager Dave Trembley tells the Baltimore Sun.
