MLB.com is reporting that Douglas High graduate Shawn Estes threw his first bullpen session back from a fractured thumb suffered May 30.
Estes, a left-handed pitcher for the San Diego Padres, reportedly threw 30 pitches, all fastballs, in the session. He is scheduled to throw another bullpen session today and a simulated game in Lake Elsinore next week.
