Jonathan Pettibone (shoulder) threw from a mound with no issues Friday.
Pettibone received a cortisone injection in his right shoulder last week and appears to be all systems go now. He'll be fine for Opening Day if he can avoid a setback, though he's expected to serve as rotation insurance at Triple-A. Feb 28 - 8:57 AM

Jonathan Pettibone (shoulder) resumed throwing on flat ground Saturday.

Pettibone received a cortisone injection in his right shoulder five days ago to address some soreness, and he hopes to be back on a mound within the next week. The right-hander called the throwing session "fine." If healthy, Pettibone will serve as rotation depth for the Phillies.

Jonathan Pettibone received a cortisone injection Monday morning for his sore right shoulder.

Pettibone missed the final two months of the 2013 season due to inflammation in his biceps and rotator cuff, and it seems as though the issue was not resolved over the winter. He will attempt to throw in five days. If that doesn't go well, he'll likely visit a specialist.

Jonathan Pettibone didn't throw a scheduled bullpen session Sunday due to shoulder soreness.

It's a bit of a concern after biceps and shoulder issues cost him the final two months of last season, but the Phillies don't seem too worried at this point. "Hopefully nothing big," GM Ruben Amaro said. We are just trying to be cautious." It's not clear at this point when Pettibone will attempt to throw again. The 23-year-old doesn't have a rotation spot following the A.J. Burnett signing, but losing him would hurt the Phils' depth.

Jonathan Pettibone (arm) will throw off a mound Friday.

Inflammation in the right biceps and rotator cuff cost the 23-year-old righty the last two months of 2013 and limited his rookie season to 18 starts. Pettibone threw a few side sessions in October without pain, and will now resume work. "Last year, they had five starters," Pettibone said. "My goal last year was to show them what I could do. Give them an image in the back of their minds in case something went wrong - like it did - and they knew what they had. This year, tides have turned, and I'm going in competing for a job. It's going to be fun. I'm looking forward to it." Pettibone enters the spring competition an underdog to Miguel Gonzalez to seize the last spot in the rotation.

Phillies activated RHP Jonathan Pettibone from the 60-day disabled list.

It's a procedural move in order to add him back to the 40-man roster. Pettibone missed the last two months of the season due to shoulder soreness, but he's been throwing for a month and should be fine for spring training.

Jonathan Pettibone (shoulder) has been long-tossing for the past three weeks in the instructional league.

Pettibone's 2013 season ended prematurely due to rotator cuff tendinitis and biceps tendinitis. He's progressing well, though, and will try throwing from a mound soon. "I think this is my third week of throwing," Pettibone said this past Thursday. "I've got one more week of long-toss and then a week of bullpens."

An MRI on Jonathan Pettibone's right shoulder showed only inflammation.

"The (MRI) results came back showing inflammation as it was before," Pettibone said. "I wanted to make sure it wasn’t more." The righty noted, however, that while the news was good, it's still up in the air as to when he'll return. "It is nothing serious, but it is going to take time," He said." They gave me six days (rest) at first and it wasn’t enough. It was kind of mild inflammation and it never really went away once I picked up with activities and throwing."

Phillies placed LHP Jonathan Pettibone on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to July 29, with a right shoulder strain.

The rookie right-hander has allowed exactly three earned runs apiece in his last three starts. Pettibone is 5-4 with a 4.04 ERA and 1.47 WHIP. He should be ready to return in mid-August.
