As to when he will pitch again, Beasley Reece reports that Saturday is the target date, though Oswalt admitted he was "rusty" because he did not pitch the entire time he was away. He did throw today at Citizens Bank Park
As to when Oswalt will pitch, pitching coach Rich Dubee told Philled In's David Hale that “He looked OK…Was a little rusty, but fine.”
