Monday - Bullpen Session (25 - 30 pitches)  Work on what you need to work on from previous game. I recommend 3 of each pitch from the wind up and 3 of each from the stetch.  command your fastball. Run - whatever you feel up to

Tuesday - Regular throwing or day off is fine, sprint work

Wednesday - "Touch/Feel" bullpen.  nice and easy just to keep the feel of the mound.  maybe 15 pitches at 60 percent.  distance run

Thursday - Light throwing.  Sprints

Friday - Dominate


       


Just to point out, the OP included doing sprints as part of his recommended workout routine. What I don't see is his definition of "distance" running. If it's under 3 miles or so, I don't see how his workout routine is not pretty close to optimal. If his players are in better overall physical shape by doing some longer running AND he is incorporating sprints, I don't see a BIG problem with what he is doing.

Just wanted to point out that the OP DID include doing sprint work with his conditioning plan.
