Chien-Ming Wang is expected to throw off a mound in the next week or two, according to agent Alan Nero. Wang is coming off shoulder surgery on July 29. "Everything is going extraordinarily well," Nero said. "We're anticipating a major-league offer with a substantial guarantee and substantial upside," the agent added. "We're so confident with what is going to happen, if we don't do it until May, we're OK. Whoever shows the initiative to take a little bit of risk is going to win."
