Roy Oswalt is expected to make 2-3 starts at extended spring training before likely being assigned to Double-A Tulsa. According to Troy E. Renck of the Denver Post, Oswalt "has been throwing for several weeks, including intense bullpen sessions." Because he's not starting from scratch like in a normal spring training, Oswalt shouldn't need too much time to get ready. He seems likely to be added to the Rockies' rotation by late May or early June.
