Berrios (elbow) threw a bullpen session Tuesday and is expected to face hitters Saturday, Mitch Bannon of The Athletic reports.

The veteran righty is on the shelf due to a stress fracture in his elbow, but he's attempting to rehab it without surgery. Berrios had built up to 63 pitches in his last spring outing before being shut down, so once he's cleared to begin a minor-league rehab assignment, he may need only one or two starts. The Blue Jays' pitching depth has been tested early, with Cody Ponce (knee) the latest starter to go down. but Berrios appears to be on track to return before the end of April and beat both Trey Yesavage (shoulder) and Shane Bieber (forearm) back to the active roster.
