Worth noting

• Schafer didn't make it very far on Sunday when he took his first jog four days after fouling a ball off his right ankle in Kansas City.

"I went out there for like one jog and turned right back around and came back in," Schafer said.

With the help of Monday's off-day, the Braves' utility outfielder is now walking normally and could see the field during this week's series with Miami.

"He's probably going to come out here and maybe do a little running and test it, but he is progressing in that direction," Gonzalez said before Tuesday night's series opener. "Friday was definitely nothing, Saturday nothing, Sunday maybe a little bit better, and I think today we should be able to use him if we need to."

• Reliever Cristhian Martinez returned to Atlanta from his rehab stint for Double-A Mississippi to be examined by team doctors on Tuesday. Martinez continued to feel shoulder discomfort during his appearances on June 25 and June 28 for Mississippi.
