Tyler Glasnow, the Los Angeles Dodgers' oft-injured starting pitcher, on Tuesday downplayed concerns of a setback, one day after manager Dave Roberts revealed Glasnow's body did not respond well to a recent bullpen session.

Glasnow said his back "got a little tight" after a bullpen session on May 23 -- his first since landing on the injured list because of shoulder inflammation 25 days earlier -- but stressed that he temporarily stopped throwing off a mound as a precautionary measure. He said he expected to pitch off a mound again before the end of the week.

"I feel totally fine," Glasnow said. "Totally normal."
