Worth noting

• Craig Gentry's left hamstring ailment is progressing, and the center fielder said he could be in the lineup if it were the regular season. Instead, he'll spend at least another day on the bench. He went through routine outfield drills and batting practice in the cage before Thursday's game against the Indians.

Gentry is in competition with Leonys Martin and Julio Borbon for the club's starting center field spot.

"The more I got to play last year, the better I did," Gentry said. "I know if I get a chance to get in there and I can get repetition offensively, then I definitely feel good about my chances."
