PORT CHARLOTTE, Fla. -- After admitting that he could "still feel'' his strained left hamstring during a bullpen session, Koji Uehara was limited to some long toss Tuesday.
"That's pretty much the extent of his throwing,'' said John Farrell. "As we look at his throwing program, it's pretty much a day-to-day type thing (depending on) how the hamstring feels and the intensity he'll throw in a given session.''
The Sox, who acknowledged Monday that Uehara won't be on the Opening Day roster, have yet to determine what Uehara will be doing when the Sox break camp Saturday.
One option would be to leave him in Fort Myers to throw in warm weather as part of the team's extended spring training program. The Sox could take Uehara with them to Philadelphia to monitor his progress and keep him in touch with the medical and training staff. Or, Uehara could begin a rehab assignment with one of the minor league affiliates.
