Set for live batting practice Patino (oblique) will throw live batting practice Wednesday, Adam Berry of MLB.com reports. Impact Patino threw bullpen sessions on May 25 and 28 and felt good after each occasion. He'll progress to facing hitters for the first time since being placed on the injured list April 11, which will serve as a significant step forward in his recovery. Patino will almost certainly go on a rehab assignment before being activated, so his return is likely to come in the latter half of June at the earliest.
