German (shoulder) is expected to throw a bullpen session this weekend, Lindsey Adler of The Athletic reports.

The right-hander was managing some soreness after a bullpen session last week, but he's poised to retake the mound this weekend. The next step in German's rehab has yet to be decided, as the Yankees are considering a move to the bullpen to hasten his return to the majors. If the 29-year-old returns as a starter he likely won't rejoin the big-league club until at least mid-September.
