Gallardo's Recovery

In a video posted on MLB.com, right-handed starting pitcher Yovani Gallardo said that he just finished his second bullpen session and feels good. The clip shows him hopping around and throwing a bit, which is promising. He also reports that he's ahead of his planned recovery schedule, which is always deceiving, but the Brewers have a world-class medical staff. They were given an award just two years ago for the best in the league. Nevertheless, this is tough news for struggling pitchers like Bush and Capuano, who are gaining trade value with injuries around the league and losing rotation jobs after every earned run. But it's more important to note that this is a big boost to the Brewers' starting rotation. Yo should only need a couple of rehab innings to get to full strength, but they'll probably take precautions to make sure the injury doesn't resurface.
