Right-hander Chris Volstad threw a 50-pitch on Saturday, and then manager Fredi Gonzalez declared that he is ready to return to the field. "It went well," Gonzalez said. "He'll go back into the bullpen. We won't use him Sunday, and then Monday is an off-day. On Tuesday, we can use him."
Saturday's simulated game obviously convinced Gonzalez that Volstad is back truely. However, the Marlins won't need him until Tuesday's doubleheader against the Phillies. "That's why we did it today," Gonzalez said. "We felt like we could get through these next two games without him having to pitch."
