Wacha (oblique) is set to resume throwing Saturday, Jenifer Langosch of MLB.com reports.

While the news is naturally positive after Wacha was shut down for over a month, his potential return to action is still multiple weeks away. Langosch reports that Wacha will need at least a month to rebuild sufficient arm strength and stamina to take back his role in the starting rotation, and that's assuming there are no setbacks along the way.
