Jon Heyman of CBSSports.com reports that Brandon Webb (shoulder) began a throwing program in late December and his agent, Jonathan Maurer, said his client's arm feels "strong and loose.'' Webb, who hasn't appeared in a MLB game the last two seasons and appeared in just one in 2009, underwent rotator cuff surgery in August. Someone will likely be willing to offer him a minor league deal, but the odds of the former Cy Young winner ever being an impactful player again are slim.
