McCann (shoulder) to resume throwing soon
Brian McCann - C - Atlanta Braves

Brian McCann (shoulder) is on track to begin light throwing within the next couple of weeks.

McCann underwent surgery in early October to repair a torn labrum in his right shoulder. He's expected to miss the first few weeks of the 2013 campaign but should ultimately make a full recovery. The 28-year-old Braves backstop remains a highly valuable fantasy commodity.
