Alcantara is expected to build up to 80-to-90 pitches while pitching in a minor-league game Friday,
Chuck King of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
It should be Alcantara's last outing of the spring before he takes mound for the Marlins on Opening Day. The right-hander has been impressive in camp in his return from Tommy John surgery, posting a 0.00 ERA and 10:3 K:BB over 12.1 Grapefruit League innings, and if he shows he's back to something close to his Cy Young form, it might serve to increase the trade package Miami can get for him this summer.
