Rafael Soriano is scheduled to throw batting practice Saturday and if all goes well, he’ll pitch in a minor league game on Tuesday. Joe Girardi said the team would like to see the righthander throw on back-to-back days before making any moves.
Soriano (1-1, 5.40), who has right elbow inflammation, last pitched on May 13.
