Yankees' Luis Severino: Mound work imminent

According to Yankees general manager Brian Cashman, Severino (elbow) is doing well with his throwing program and should start pitching off a mound soon, Brendan Kuty of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.

News of Severino's return to the mound has been floated for several weeks, and it appears that there have been no setbacks with the right-hander's progression. Though an exact date for Severino's next step has yet to be determined, he remains on track to return to big-league action sometime this summer.
