Phil Hughes (back) is scheduled to throw three innings in a minor league game on Friday afternoon.
If it goes well, he should be cleared to make his Grapefruit League debut next week. Hughes has been taking it easy in camp this spring because of a bulging disc in his back. It's still unclear whether he is going to be ready for his first turn in the regular-season rotation.
