On the trainer’s table
n An MRI on pitcher Anderson Garcia’s sore right arm showed inflammation in the shoulder, and he won’t throw for seven days.
n Pitcher Eric O’Flaherty, whose outing Friday was scratched because he had a stiff lower back, is scheduled to pitch today against the Brewers.
n Catcher Brant Ust took part in drills Saturday for the first time all week after experiencing back spasms.
Weather
n Sunny and a high of 77, but the morning low temperatures have been in the mid-40s.
They said it
n “This day’s been on my mind for a while.” Right-hander Chris Reitsma, who pitched in a game Saturday for the first time since he had elbow surgery last July.
They did it
n Right-hander Miguel Batista threw without pain in the bullpen Saturday morning and will make his scheduled start today against the Brewers. In his last outing, Batista experienced pain in his left side but continued to pitch, and he’d been receiving treatment for it since.
