Brett Myers could return as early as mid-August... as a reliever. Myers is "way ahead of schedule" after having hip surgery on June 4, but won't be ready to throw 100 pitches.
"I knew in the back of my mind that I was going to be back this year, even when
they said my season was over," Myers said. "I had a feeling that everything was
going to be OK."
"I'm not pushing it," he said. "I'm not trying to go faster than I should. I'm doing what my body is telling me to do. And my body is telling me to work a little harder. I've been working on a slideboard for a week and a half. I'm not even supposed to be doing that until the eighth week."
Myers has bullpen experience. In 2007, he recoreded 21 saves. Myers has a bullpen session on Saturday, and if that goes well, he could report to Clearwater by Monday.
