Day 28: Red Sox @ Pirates
Jenifer Langosch/MLB.com
I’m going to keep this really brief since we’re a little more than an hour away from game time already.
Morning news:
- Scott Olsen and Joe Beimel are slated to make their spring debuts on Monday. Each lefty will pitch one inning. More on pirates.com later about whether or not Olsen has the time to build up enough arm strength to begin the season as a starter
- Righty Kevin Hart threw a 25-pitch bullpen session on Saturday and had no issues. His progress is slow, but he is recovering.
- Catcher Chris Snyder will receive more treatment today to help with his lower back soreness. He remains out of the lineup.
- The following pitchers will throw on Monday: Kevin Correia (five innings), Evan Meek, Olsen, Beimel, Michael Crotta
