Mets reliever Carlos Torres (calf) could throw off a mound Friday, Adam Rubin of ESPN New York reports.

The Mets have yet to allow Torres to throw off a mound since he suffered a strained left calf over a week ago, but he's been able to do some mound work at about 50 percent. Assuming he's able to progress with his rehab in the coming days, Torres should be able to return before the end of the season.
