Matzek (personal) will throw batting practice for the first time in extended spring training Friday, CBS Denver reports.

Analysis:

It's good to see Matzek making progress in his return from performance anxiety issues, but he still has a ways to go before returning to game action. If he can get through a few batting practice sessions, the next steps would be to throw in simulated games and rehab assignments before returning to the mound full-time. His timetable for return should become clearer once he makes the next step in his rehab process.
