McTaggart explains that Lyon is feeling good, despite his rehab taking longer than he expected. You know, because having a cyst in your shoulder that presses on a nerve is like having a 24-hour stomach bug.
Lyon, who threw 30 pitches off the mound from the stretch - which he apparently does throughout his bullpen sessions:
"It felt like it has been a long process. I came in here and expected to come back really quickly, and it hasn't come back as quickly as I thought. I've never been in this situation, so I didn't know what to expect. I'm staying mentally sharp and trying to focus on getting strong and better every day."
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
