Worth noting

Right-hander Matt Albers, who's been on the disabled list since April 22 with right shoulder tendinitis, didn't throw a simulated game Friday as previously scheduled. Porter said he wasn't able to get loose and they didn't want to push him. Albers will continue the throwing program and will be re-evaluated later.
