Beede (elbow) has started throwing bullpen sessions, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Beede continues to progress well in his rehab from Tommy John surgery last March. After he resumed throwing in September, he advanced to bullpen sessions this week. While Beede isn't expected to pitch in any spring games this year, the team hopes that he could be ready for game action in the majors or minors sometime in May.
