Dodgers' Yasiel Puig: Scratched from lineup

Puig was scratched from Friday's Cactus League lineup because he is doing "extra work on the side," Ken Gurnick of MLB.com reports.

Analysis:

Puig had also been scratched earlier in the week because of calf soreness, but it appears this is unrelated. The right-hander is hitting .250 with three home runs and seven RBI this spring as he prepares for his fifth season with the Dodgers. Chris Segedin took his place in the outfield.
