Marlins' Johnny Cueto: Resumes playing catch

Cueto (biceps/ankle) has resumed playing catch, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Cueto was in "no throw" mode last week, but the right-hander is now able to at least play catch while he recovers from a sprained ankle on top of the right biceps injury that has bothered him since the start of the year. He will likely need to make a couple of rehab starts before he's ready to join the Marlins' rotation, although with Eury Perez now in the majors it's not clear if there will be room for the 37-year-old Cueto.
