Begins throwing program Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said Wednesday that Montas (lat) has begun a throwing program, Tim Healey of Newsday reports. Impact Montas was cleared to play catch from 60 feet as he begins a throwing progression. It's the first time he's thrown since he was diagnosed with a high-grade right lat strain in mid-February, so it's going to be a lengthy build-up process for the hurler.
