Worth noting

By Joe Frisaro

• Justin Ruggiano is feeling under the weather, and he didn't take part in batting practice on Friday afternoon.

• Chris Coghlan, on the disabled list with a nerve/back injury, did some throwing up to 120 feet on Friday afternoon. And for the first time, the 28-year-old swung the bat in the cages. He is hoping to return more quickly than expected, but he still could be a month away.

• Yelich recalls a brief conversation he had while on first base on Tuesday in his Major League debut at Coors Field. Yelich singled in each of his first three at-bats. On his first hit, he received a congratulations from Colorado first baseman Todd Helton. On his third hit, Helton said: "What are you doing? It's not that easy."
