Via Jesse Sanchez at MLB.com, "Roberts not planning to use iPad during games."

"I'm used to looking at paper and I kind of have certain things that I like to go to and reference when you walk through an individual game," Roberts said. "To navigate through an iPad, I don't want to have to worry about it loading up. I want to know where I have to go for information."

Via Eric Stephen at True Blue LA, "Rob Segedin earns trip to Freeway Series."

"He has opened our eyes. He has ability to catch the ball at third and at first, to have right-handed power. He runs well, moves well. He just loves to play the game. He's one of the first guys in here all camp long. He's routine-oriented and the guys like him," (Dave) Roberts said on Sunday. "I don't see him breaking camp with us as far as making the opening day roster, but I do see him helping us this year."
