TORONTO _ Luis Severino initially used one word to describe his first bullpen session since March: "Perfect."
The right-hander, out since the start of the season with right rotator cuff inflammation and a subsequent lat strain he suffered while rehabbing, threw 23 pitches Friday afternoon at Rogers Centre.
"Better than I expected," Severino said, practically beaming. "I threw a couple change-ups, the slider and everything was pretty normal. Like a normal bullpen. I was expecting my secondary pitches to be a little bit off, but they were good."
