Kansas centre Joel Embiid worked out Wednesday for the Cavs, who are trying to decide what to do with the No. 1 overall pick in this months NBA draft. The 7-foot Embiid, who has only been playing basketball for a few years, arrived in Cleveland on Tuesday night for his visit, the team confirmed. The Cavs are eager to put Embiid thorough medical physical as there have been concerns about the 18-year-olds back. Embiid missed the tail end of his freshman season with the Jayhawks because of what was described as a stress fracture in his lower back. Embiid did not attend the leagues pre-draft combine last month in Chicago, and his medical records were not released by the school. The Cavs dont want to take any chances with a selection after last years top pick, forward Anthony Bennett, struggled during his first year after undergoing shoulder surgery. Embiid is the first of the top prospects to visit the Cavs, who are expected to meet with Kansas swingman Andrew Wiggins and Duke forward Jabari Parker. "Having fun in Cleveland," Embiid wrote on his Twitter account, with a photo of a Cavaliers T-shirt. In the meantime, the Cavs are in the fourth week of their coaching search. The team has had interviews with at least six known candidates, the most recent being former Cleveland All-Star guard and current Charlotte assistant Mark Price. The Cavs are expected to have a second meeting with Clippers assistant Alvin Gentry, who previously worked with Cleveland general manager David Griffin in Arizona. Ideally, the Cavs would like to have a new coach in place by the June 26 draft, but have not put a timetable on hiring their third coach in three years.

"Take Bautista out of the game and it was really good," the Phillies left-hander after striking out seven over six innings in the Philadelphia Phillies 2-0 loss to the Blue Jays. Bautista had a pair of doubles and scored Torontos first run. "Hes a good hitter," Lee said. "Hes really good at picking up sequences on what youre trying to do to him. Both the hits he got were really good pitches. Ill take both of them all day. Lee survived the first inning, striking out the side, two strikeouts coming after Kelly Johnson singled and Bautista doubled to right. But in the fourth Bautista stole third after his leadoff double and Adam Lind singled him home. Lee threw 75 pitches, 53 for strikes, over his six innings. "I felt good. ... I felt I couldve kept going easy but ... I want to build up and get headed in the right direction," he said. "Im just trying to get my pitches where I want to be, to be able to throw any pitch in any count. Im just locating my pitches. Its really that simple." He said he was throwing for contact, not for strikeouts. But the swings and misses by the Blue Jays "says youve got some deception and, for the most part, throwing strikes that are hard to hit. Im not trying to strike anybody out. It just happens." The Blue Jays other run came in the eighth when centre fielder Scott Podsednik misplayed Travis Sniders flyball and Kelly Johnson doubled to right. Torontos Brandon Morrow outpitched Lee, giving up one hit, a single by Carlos Ruiz with one out in the fifth, and a pair of second-innning walks. Nike Air Max 90 Sneakerboot - Mens. He threw 59 pitches in five innings. "Thats something that I set out to do, was to improve my pitches per inning and go deeper in games," Morrow said. "Its definitely encouraging, I had to go down to the bullpen to throw 15 more to get my pitch count up. "Im thinking through at-bats and watching the way (hitters are) reacting to balls and calling a little bit more of my own game," he said. "All positives." The Phillies had four hits in all and got only two runners as far as third base en route to their third spring shutout loss. "Every day youve got to hit," Phillies manager Charlie Manuel said, sounding not the least bit perturbed. " I put stock in it every ... day -- spring training, Little League, it dont matter. Every day. Thats why we come (to spring training). We dont come to get shut out, but it happens sometimes but well come back and try to do better." NOTES: Phillies third baseman Placido Polanco, out since Saturday with a sprained left ring finger, took batting practice and Manuel said he could be back in the lineup "over the next couple of days, hopefully two or three days. Hes close." ... Blue Jays third baseman Brett Lawrie may return to the lineup Saturday against the visiting Braves, manager John Farrell said. Lawrie is recovering from tightness in his left groin that caused him to leave last Fridays game against Tampa Bay. ... The Phillies will start Vance Worley (1-1, 1.80 ERA) Friday against Hiroki Kuroda (1-1, 4.00) and the visiting Yankees split squad. ... Brett Cecil (3-0, 0.90) will start Friday for Toronto against David Price (0-0, 5.40) for the host Rays at Port Charlotte.
