Jake Westbrook (elbow) was able to throw a bullpen session on Monday morning and has cancelled his Tuesday appointment with Dr. James Andrews.
It's a nice turn of events for the 35-year-old right-hander, who was already cleared of structural damage earlier this month by the Cardinals' medical staff and can now work toward rejoining the St. Louis starting rotation. Westbrook is still at least two weeks away, but the situation looked far grimmer just a few days ago.
