EDGE Analysis

Vincent was placed on the 15-day DL with a strained back on June 29 but threw a bullpen session Saturday and advanced to a simulated inning Tuesday. The 30-year-old commented after the outing that his back "feels good" and there was "no pain". If he continues to progress smoothly in the coming days, he could set out on a rehab assignment by the end of the week.
