Mahle is expected to pitch within the next few days after an MRI on his right forearm came back negative, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.
Mahle was scratched from a scheduled Cactus League outing Tuesday due to right forearm soreness, but the move was said to be precautionary and he said Wednesday that he feels fine. Barring a setback, Mahle's readiness for Opening Day shouldn't be affected.
