Chad Billingsley is one step closer to returning to the mound for the Philadelphia Phillies.

According to the Philadelphia Inquirer, Billingsley threw his first bullpen session on Tuesday since injuring his lat in an April 15 start.

The report says that the right-handed starter will likely need another bullpen throwing session before partaking in a rehab assignment, which could begin as soon as next week if all continues to go smoothly.

Billingsley opened up 2015 with a pair of rough starts, but settled down in his most recent start, in which he went six innings and gave up two earned runs.
