Worth noting

• Jordan Walden would be eligible to come off the disabled list on Tuesday, but the right-handed reliever's strained left hamstring is still not strong enough for him to throw off the mound.

• Jonny Venters was scheduled to meet with Braves doctors on Tuesday evening about the left elbow discomfort he felt while completing a live batting practice session last week at the club's Spring Training complex. Venters believes the discomfort he felt was just a product of ramping up his intensity, as he was facing live hitters for just the second time since undergoing a second Tommy John surgery last year.
