Kittredge (neck) threw from 60 feet off flat ground Wednesday, the Associated Press reports.

The veteran reliever is hoping to spend a minimal amount of time on the injured list with the neck tightness that landed him there, and Wednesday's activity level was encouraging in that regard. Kittredge is eligible to return as early as Monday, and if he's able to continue upping his activity level without setbacks over the next few days, he could have a good chance of a minimum stay on the shelf.
