Ryu (forearm) threw three innings during a simulated game Saturday, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ryu looked healthy during Saturday's throwing session, so manager Charlie Montoyo is optimistic that the southpaw will begin a brief rehab assignment sometime next week. He'll presumably miss at least one more turn through the rotation, but Ryu appears likely to rejoin the Blue Jays sometime in May.
