Zack Wheeler (oblique) threw a 30-pitch bullpen session Thursday.
It was his first bullpen session since he was shut down with a mild right oblique strain last week. Wheeler estimated that he was throwing at about 70-75 percent, but he should be ready to ramp up the intensity in the coming days. The top prospect is slated to begin the season with Triple-A Las Vegas, but he should be a candidate for a call-up by the All-Star break.
