Archer (forearm/hip) is expected to resume throwing Friday, Neil Solondz of the Rays Radio Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Archer's rehab start was cut short Sunday due to left hip soreness, but he recently underwent an MRI that came back clean. The right-hander received an injection, and manager Kevin Cash is hopeful that Archer will resume throwing following a brief period of rest. The Rays haven't yet announced when the 32-year-old will resume his rehab assignment, but he doesn't appear to be dealing with a serious setback.
