Indians' Josh Tomlin: Throws simulated game Monday

Tomlin (hamstring) threw three innings of a simulated game Monday.

Tomlin's level of activity has steadily increased since his placement on the DL at the beginning of August. When Tomlin landed on the disabled list, it was estimated that he would need to miss six weeks of action. However, an early return for the righty could be in order if he maintains his current pace.
