Review of Harden and Miles rehab in Iowa from TCR.

 

Des Moines Register[/url]"]He threw 70 pitches, of which 44 were strikes.

 

"Everything felt good," said Harden, who had a 4-2 record and 4.74 earned-run average before going on the disabled list May 22 with a back strain. "I just wanted to try and establish my command, work on getting ahead of the hitters, and throwing off-speed pitches for strikes."

 

"Saturday against the Twins," Harden said when asked his timetable.

 

He reports with the same pitches with which he left — a fastball that hit 92 miles-an-hour twice Monday, and the usual breaking and off-speed offerings.

 

"I swear, the hardest I ever threw in a rehab was 93 — ever," Harden said. "I've never really been too concerned with my velocity. I'm not too concerned with that. It'll be there."

 

Round Rock's Jason Smith was impressed, especially after striking out against Harden in the fourth inning.

 

"He threw me a split-finger during that at-bat was probably one of the best pitches I've ever seen," Smith said. "His fastball didn't have great velocity, but he put it where he wanted."
