Phil Hughes (bulging disk) says he could begin working out in a pool Sunday.

Hughes is off anti-inflammatories and expects to be symptom-free by the end of the week. He could resume his throwing program in the next few days, but will need to avoid any setbacks if he hopes to be ready for the start of the season.
