Roch Kubatko has the latest on Matt Wieters rehabilitation:

Wieters started a light throwing program immediately after Thanksgiving and has stayed with it, heading outdoors every other day to play catch with physical therapist Lloyd Van Pamelen in Atlanta. The distance started at 45 feet and increased to 60 almost two weeks ago. One or two more sessions and he’ll move back to 90 feet.

“Everything has gone how we thought it would and gone how Richie (Bancells) and Lloyd here told me kind of what to expect,” Wieters said. “It’s always good when things happen as planned. I’ve had a lot of good people helping me out. It’s been a rehab process so far, but at the same time we haven’t had any unexpected things going on, which is always good.”

So everything is on schedule, but Wieters won’t commit to being ready for opening day.
