El Duque Throwing

There’s finally a reason to feel optimistic about Orlando Hernandez.

Due to the injury to his foot El Duque has been working on a new windup that eliminates his trademark high leg kick. The high leg kick was causing pressure on the hurt toe so it had to go in favor of a windup that would cause less pressure to the toe.

This morning El Duque was practicing the new windup in the bullpen and was spotted loosening up with a long toss session in the outfield shortly thereafter. I read somewhere (but I forgot where) that he will be throwing a batting practice session today but we’ll have to wait and see.
