Right-handed Christian Javier For example, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle took a big step forward when he started his rehabilitation mission, taking the rotation to return to the Astronaut today. Javier threw 1 1/3 innings in the Florida Complex League today, manager Joe Espada told reporters (including Kavahara) “It feels really good to come out” After a 35-shot outing, he hit 95 mph with a fastball.
