Impact The right-hander has been sidelined due to right forearm inflammation since June 26, so Saturday's throwing session represents a tangible step toward a return. Lamet mixed both fastballs and sliders into his simulated inning of work and indicated that he felt good after throwing. According to manager Jayce Tingler, it is unclear where Lamet goes from here. "I don't know what exactly that the next step will be," said Tingler. "If we decide to go on a rehab assignment, or if we do one more [facing live hitters], what exactly that looks like. We wanted to kind of see how this one went, and it went really well."
