Chris Johnson is working on a mechanical adjustment to his swing, lowering his hands to allow for a more consistent swing path.
It's an effort to return to the form he displayed in 2013 when he competed for the National League batting title. The 30-year-old is looking to rebound from a disappointing 2014 season where he hit just .263/.292/.361 with 10 homers and 58 RBI.

Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports that the Giants "remain interested" in Chris Johnson.
They have an opening at the hot corner after losing out on the Pablo Sandoval and Chase Headley sweepstakes, but it's debatable as to how much of an upgrade Johnson would be. The 30-year-old batted just .263/.292/.361 in 2014 for Atlanta and is a career .283/.319/.419 hitter over six seasons.

According to David O'Brien of the Atlanta Journal Constitution, the Braves have not tried to package Chris Johnson in trade talks about Justin Upton.
This refutes a report from USA Today's Bob Nightengale, who said the two were being floated to some teams as a tandem. O'Brien does confirm that the Braves are shopping Johnson, but as a separate piece to Upton. Johnson, 30, batted just .263/.292/.361 in 2014 for Atlanta. The third baseman signed a $23.5 million contract extension in May.

USA Today's Bob Nightengale reports that the Braves are packaging Chris Johnson with Justin Upton in trade talks with teams.
Johnson is likely only being talked about with a few teams, as he wouldn't seem to be a fit on all the clubs reportedly interested in Upton. The Braves, not surprisingly, are already having buyer's remorse after inking Johnson to a $23.5 million extension in May. The 30-year-old hit just .263/.292/.361 in 2014 and probably should be more of a part-time player.

Melvin Upton
Sidelined
Melvin Upton has been diagnosed with sesamoiditis in his left foot and is expected to miss all of spring training.
Sesamoiditis is inflammation in the bone behind the ball of his foot. Upton will be in a cast for two weeks and a walking boot for 4-6 weeks after that. He won't be allowed to resume baseball activity until at least early April and is expected to be out until at least May 1. It's a tough break for a guy in desperate need of a bounce-back season after hitting just .198/.279/.314 in his first two seasons with the Braves. Eury Perez, Eric Young and Zoilo Almonte are options to fill in for Upton in center field.

Nick Markakis
Sidelined
Nick Markakis (neck) was cleared this week to run and work out extensively.
Markakis is now eight weeks removed from surgery to repair a herniated disk in his neck. The veteran outfielder will miss the early spring training games, but there's no clear date for his debut. He remains hopeful of being ready for Opening Day, but it's no sure thing. Markakis signed a four-year, $44 million deal with the Braves over the winter.

Mike Minor
Sidelined
Mike Minor (shoulder) is expected to see Dr. James Andrews early next week.
Minor was scratched from Sunday's start against the Astros due to tightness in his throwing shoulder and the Braves want him to get checked out. The southpaw dealt with shoulder issues last year en route to a disappointing 4.77 ERA, so this is a concerning development.

60-Day DL
Braves placed RHP Shae Simmons on the 60-day disabled list with a right elbow injury.
Simmons had Tommy John surgery earlier this month and will miss the entire 2015 season. Moving him to the 60-day DL frees up a spot on the 40-man roster for the Braves.
