A.J. Burnett Hopes To Return By Mid-September 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Sun Aug 30, 2015 10:49 pm

Pirates right-hander A.J. Burnett is hopeful of returning to the rotation by mid-September following a 71-pitch bullpen session Sunday.

The 38-year-old has been on the disabled list since July 31 with a strained flexor tendon in his right elbow.

"It was good, better than expected," Burnett said of the bullpen session. "The pain is gone and I feel good."
