James Paxton throws simulated game

James Paxton threw 40 pitches in a simulated game Friday and experienced no pain afterwards.

Fantasy Implications: Paxton, who is recovering from a pectoral injury, will throw a bullpen session sometime early next week. If all goes well, he will be available to make a start in either Texas or Houston later in the week. The 28-year-old southpaw will initially be on a restrictive pitch count if and when he is able rejoin the rotation. Paxton, who is no stranger to the disabled list, is having an outstanding year, posting a 12-3 record with a 2.78 ERA and 1.08 WHIP.
