Red Sox | Felix Doubront throws

Boston Red Sox SP Felix Doubront (knee) threw 45 pitches off a mound Friday, Aug. 17, and he'll likely have another session before he returns to the rotation. "So we have him a little up and down session in the bullpen today, we'll have another one of those planned coming up where he'll do it longer, and then he'll be ready to pitch in the game and throw 100 pitches or so," manager Bobby Valentine said. "He'll be ready this next week to pitch. If we decide that we don't need him until at the end of the week, we might even take that amount of time."
