Facing hitters Wednesday
Whitlock (elbow) will throw a live batting practice session Wednesday in Miami, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.
Analyse
Whitlock has bounced back quickly after landing on the 15-day injured list in mid-August with right elbow inflammation. If all goes well when he faces hitters Wednesday, Whitlock has a chance to avoid a rehab assignment and return to the active roster as soon as this weekend. The right-handed reliever has been terrific this season in a setup role, authoring a 2.05 ERA, 0.89 WHIP and 49:7 K:BB across 44 innings.

Resumes throwing
Whitlock (elbow) resumed throwing Wednesday and is expected to throw a bullpen session in the near future, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.
Analyse
Whitlock was placed on the 15-day injured list with right elbow inflammation last week but appears to be nearing a return to the mound. It sounds like Whitlock's stay on the IL could be around the minimum. The 30-year-old has posted a 2.05 ERA, 0.89 WHIP and 49:7 K:BB across 44 innings out of the Boston bullpen this season.
