Jose Bautista throws at 40 feet prior to game against Angels
Dan Hamilton / USA TODAY Sports
Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Jose Bautista is slowly progressing towards a return to right field.
The slugger, who has been held out of the field since April 21, said he felt good after throwing Monday for the first time since sustaining a shoulder injury - albeit at 40 feet.
Nevertheless, it's progress, considering Bautista recently said he would wake up unable to brush his hair.
There's still no timetable for his return, though nothing has stopped him from hitting with normalcy.
