May 24: Chris Sale throws second bullpen session

Sale threw his first 15-pitch bullpen session on May 19, then he threw another one on May 24. The southpaw continues to progress through his throwing program and will up his pitch count to 25 in his next bullpen session on May 27. The plan is for him to get through two 25-pitch bullpen sessions with the goal of starting live batting practice after that.

“He threw sliders, changes and fastball,” manager Alex Cora said. “I talked to him today and he’s in good spirits. He liked what he saw.” -- Joey Pollizze
