Zavada expected to return to camp

The agent for Clay Zavada says he expects the D-backs left-hander to be back in camp Tuesday or Wednesday.

Zavada did not show up for the club’s physical exams Sunday night and was not in attendance at the club’s first pitcher and catcher workout Monday.

Zavada’s agent, Barry Meister, said that Zavada experienced some discomfort in his shoulder and that was the reason for his absence.

“He just needed a couple of days to figure out what was going on with his shoulder,” Meister said.

Meister said that Zavada was going to see either the team’s training staff or team physician Michael Lee about his shoulder Tuesday and that he had talked to manager Kirk Gibson about his situation.
