Saito threw 16 pitches in a simulated game, then tossed a handful of sliders in the bullpen. All of the pitches were thrown without discomfort, an exciting performance for Saito. 'To sum it up in one word, it was very good,' Saito said. 'My fastball was running, and my breaking balls were really crisp, except the slider. I haven't had time to work on my slider, so it was sort of floating up there. It didn't have that much rotation.' Saito is expected to take two days off, throw in another simulated game on Sept. 10, and take two more days off, at which time he might be able to return to the Dodgers.
