Orioles manager Buck Showalter had some good news about right-handed starter Chris Tillman March 18. The 28-year-old Tillman, who had a cortisone shot on his sore right shoulder on March 15, should begin long tossing on March 22.
Showalter said that Tillman, who has not pitched in any Grapefruit League games, would toss again on March 24.
Tillman was originally supposed to make his spring debut on March 17, but when he was unable to even begin a planned bullpen session on March 12, those plans were scrapped.
