Worth noting

• Justin Upton is expected to make his exhibition-season debut on Sunday. Upton was bothered by soreness in his right side earlier this week.

• Gonzalez was not too concerned after watching highly regarded pitching prospect J.R. Graham allow three hits, including a pair of doubles, while recording just two outs in Friday's loss to the Astros. Graham was pitching in a game for the first time since May, when he began battling the right shoulder soreness that sidelined him for the remainder of the season.

• Craig Kimbrel had a solid debut on Friday night as he pitched around a double and recorded a pair of strikeouts in a scoreless fourth inning against the Astros.
