San Francisco right-hander Tim Lincecum went all out during his bullpen session Thursday and reported that he felt just fine. The two-time NL Cy Young Award winner said he took a precautionary route after feeling some tightness in his back earlier in the week. Lincecum threw off flat ground on Wednesday and was on target Thursday throwing to Chris Stewart. "A couple of days ago I felt something in my back and figured why press it," Lincecum said. "I don't have to get ready for another month and a half so I just let my body readjust itself. I threw today and felt great." Lincecum is coming off his first losing season (13-14, 2.74 ERA) but averaged just under 14 wins a year through his first five seasons and owns a 2.98 career ERA. He has 1,127 strikeouts in 1,028 innings. "I want to throw more strike ones," Lincecum said. "I want to get back to using my fastball to control the strike zone."
