EDGE Analysis
The veteran hurler tossed 22 pitches in live batting practice Monday, and he nearly doubled that pitch count in Saturday's sim game. Kluber included cutters and sliders in the throwing session and did not appear to encounter any setbacks. Yankees manager Aaron Boone noted that Kluber pitched well but may have begun to tire toward the end of the session, which serves as a reminder that he still has obstacles to clear before rejoining the big club.
