Reds closer Aroldis Chapman (head) said he felt good after throwing live batting practice Wednesday, per The Cincinnati Enquirer.

"Normal, nothing out of the ordinary," he said.

Chapman will throw another batting practice session this weekend in Atlanta and then begin a rehab assignment.

"He threw all his pitches," manager Bryan Price said. "He was very sharp, good velocity. Good slider, good changeup. Looked like midseason form."
