Jonny Venters returned to action on Tuesday, tossing a scoreless inning against the Cubs.
It was the reliever's first appearance since last Wednesday, as he has been sidelined with shoulder tightness. In Tuesday's appearance, two of the first batters he faced reached base on singles. But he induced a double play from Bryan LaHair to get out of trouble.
May 9 - 3:52 AM
Jonny Venters will test out his shoulder during a light bullpen session Sunday.
Venters felt a little tightness in his shoulder during his last appearance on Wednesday, but he insists it's no big deal. Assuming he gets through the session OK, he'll be available to pitch Sunday.

Jonny Venters (elbow) felt good after throwing 25 pitches in a bullpen session Tuesday.
Venters hasn't appeared in a Grapefruit League game since March 18 due to elbow soreness, but it's not considered a major issue. He hopes to pitch in a game within the next couple of days and should be ready for the start of the season.

Jonny Venters is scheduled to throw a bullpen session Sunday.
Venters hasn't reported any issues with his previously sore elbow and is considered day-to-day. The Braves likely just didn't want to take any chances coming off his huge workload last season.

Brian McCann

Brian McCann (flu) is not in Thursday's lineup.

Chipper Jones
Sidelined
David O'Brien of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution writes that Chipper Jones (calf) is "worse today than before."
Jones hasn't started since suffering a left calf contusion when he was smacked in the leg by a line drive off the bat of Rays' outfielder B.J. Upton last Friday. According to O'Brien, the stiffness moved up in his calf after they "milked" the contusion on Wednesday. We're not sure what that means exactly, but it certainly sounds gross. He remains sidelined indefinitely.

Arodys Vizcaino
D.L.
Braves placed RHP Arodys Vizcaino on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to March 26, with a torn ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow.
It's a procedural move, as Vizcaino underwent Tommy John surgery earlier this month. The hard-throwing right-hander will hope to make it back for the start of 2013.

Robert Fish
D.L.
Braves placed LHP Robert Fish on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to March 26, with left elbow tendinitis.
Fish made three appearances this spring before being shut down due to soreness. The 24-year-old left-hander was selected from the Angels in December's Rule 5 Draft, but the Braves get to keep him around as long as he's on the disabled list.
