Rockies' Riley Pint: Throws bullpen session

Pint (oblique) threw a bullpen session Saturday, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

Pint was added to the 40-man roster in November and seemingly had a chance to push for a bullpen spot, but the mild oblique strain he's been dealing with has taken him out of Opening Day consideration. Per Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post, he's been optioned to Triple-A Albuquerque, but the fact that he's progressed to a bullpen session means he should have the chance to push for his debut early in the year.
