Spring training 2013: Zach Lee, Chris Reed pitching Friday

The Dodgers have their first split squad day of the spring on Friday, as one contingent heads to Tempe to play the Angels and one stays home to host the Padres at Camelback Ranch. Both games offer a chance to see a recent top draft pick pitch for the Dodgers, as Zach Lee will pitch against San Diego and Chris Reed will pitch against the Halos.

The other news of the day involves all three starting outfielders for the Dodgers, as Carl Crawford's opening day status is in jeopardy with minor nerve irritation in his left arm. Andre Ethier was scratched with a callus on his right hand in Tempe, while Matt Kemp returns to the lineup as the designated hitter against San Diego.

Manager Don Mattingly and bench coach Trey Hillman are in Glendale for the home game, while Triple-A manager Lorenzo Bundy will manage the squad in Tempe. Pat Corrales, a special assistant to general manager Ned Colletti, will serve as bench coach for Bundy, and both pitching coach Rick Honeycutt and bullpen coach Chuck Crim are in Tempe to watch Hyun-jin Ryu, making his first start of the spring.
