CBSSports.com Fantasy — Braves outfielder Jose Constanza finally joined the team on Friday after being delayed in the Dominican Republic for nearly a month by visa issues. Constanza, who is competing with Jordan Schafer for a roster spot, quickly made his Grapefruit League debut against the Mets on Friday and was thrown out trying to steal as a pinch runner.

"Mentally, I've been all over the place. I need to grow up and mature a little bit. I've [been dumb] in the past. But I think mentally, I'm in a good place right now."
