The 43-year-old future Hall of Fame pitcher recently threw the ball on a flat surface. Although he hasn’t gone back on the mound, he reported that his throwing session went well.

In the offseason, Glavine had shoulder surgery on his left shoulder. The left-hander has reported shoulder soreness and even in his latest session, he admit to having some pain. However, despite the pain, Glavine insists he is more optimistic and is willing to give his body more time.

The next step for Glavine will be to pitch off of a mound. That will be the ultimate test to see if his shoulder will allow him to pitch a final season for the Braves. If not, he has a place in Cooperstown waiting for him.
