ATLANTA -- The Reds have remained cautious with shortstop Zack Cozart as he deals with a left shin injury that caused him to leave in the seventh inning of Friday's game against the Braves at SunTrust Park.

Cozart was not in the lineup on Saturday as Jose Peraza drew the start for the Reds. He is considered day-to-day, however, Reds manager Bryan Price allowed the possibility Cozart could be available if needed.

"We will see if he can get some treatment through the day and see if he can maybe pinch-hit, but I am not sure about that," Price said.
