Jordan Walden: Contract voided due to health issues
Walden (shoulder) had his minor league contract with the Braves voided on Thursday because his rehab wasn't progressing as expected, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.
There were some question marks about his health heading into spring, as he missed all of 2016 with shoulder issues and made just 12 appearances in 2015 due to a biceps injury. The 29-year-old will look to get back to full strength and try to catch on with a team in a setup role, as he has plenty of high-leverage experience under his belt.

Braves' Jordan Walden: Agrees to minor league deal with Braves
Walden (shoulder) agreed to a minor league contract with the Braves on Saturday that includes an invitation to spring training.
Injuries plagued Walden's time in St. Louis -- he was limited to 12 appearances in 2015 due to a biceps injury and shoulder issues kept him off the mound entirely this past season. His health remains a question mark heading into the spring, but Walden has plenty of high-leverage experience and could eventually work into the setup mix if he gets back to full strength.
