Nationals | Ryan Zimmerman throws to bases

Washington Nationals 3B Ryan Zimmerman (shoulder) started throwing to second base during infield drills Thursday, Feb. 28. He has moved to 110 feet in his throwing program, and he plans to be throwing from 120 feet and across the infield by the end of the week. His throwing mechanics looked much smoother than last year. "Last year, I knew what I was doing. I just couldn't do it," Zimmerman said. "I was telling it to do something, but when I tried to do it, I just couldn't do it. I mean, when you're going through something like that, you just do everything you can to get through it. You've got to throw everything aside. Now, it's just more natural. It's back to normal. It's a lot better. Mentally, it's a lot better."
