Royals' Kyle Zimmer: Throws bullpen session pain-free

Zimmer (shoulder) threw his second bullpen session of the spring Tuesday, noting he felt no pain afterwards, Jeffrey Flanagan of MLB.com reports.

Analysis:

This is obviously good news for the 25-year-old, who at this point last season was already starting to feel pain and taper off. The Royals are continuing to bring him along slowly, after he failed to pitch more than 65 innings in each of the last three seasons due to injuries. The next step is his first Cactus League start, which is set for Sunday.
