http://0rz.tw/5a4MX 09/16/2008 6:33 PM ET LA feels good about Saito's return But left triceps irritation causes concern about reliever Kuo By Ken Gurnick / MLB.com PITTSBURGH -- The Dodgers seem relatively confident they will have Takashi Saito in their bullpen the rest of the way. But Hong-Chih Kuo? Maybe not so much. After two months on the shelf with a partially torn right elbow ligament, Saito came out of Monday night's first appearance saying he felt fine. Manager Joe Torre said he would try to use Saito again in Thursday's day game. "He felt fine, just the normal soreness," Torre said. "My sense is we'll wait until Thursday. He made 21 pitches. We may not have to, but I'd just as soon give him the extra day. We can throw him out there and I don't think the score will affect what we do." Although Saito's fastball velocity was noticeably down from his normal 93-94 mph and he walked one with an eight-run lead, he also struck out a pair and wasn't hesitant to throw his slider. Kuo, meanwhile, continues to take treatment for a flare-up of triceps fatigue in his left elbow, which has already had four operations. He had a cortisone injection last Thursday and pitched Sunday for the first time in a week, but the irritation returned. This time, he said, he will not even play catch for several days, but there is growing concern about his availability and durability, not only for the final 12 games, but beyond. -- 擦乾眼淚　不要哭了　 你要像我一樣驕傲才對 我是英雄　你就跟著我　我會帶你看遍世界的美 Yeah dude, you gonna be in my group, and that's why I wanted you, see all the thing I will do for you.
