Worth noting

By Joe Frisaro

• Rafael Furcal (left hamstring) begins his rehab assignment on Monday with Class A Jupiter. The plan is to have him spend a week with Jupiter, and follow that up with a week at Double-A Jacksonville. He will be evaluated again at that time. Position players are allowed up to 21 days to be on rehab assignment.

• Giancarlo Stanton, according to ESPN's Stats & Info, has two of the three longest home runs this season. Stanton's drive of 469 feet on Saturday night is the third longest in the Majors this year. Stanton's 484-foot drive at Marlins Park is the longest, and Atlanta's Justin Upton is second at 477 feet.
