Gonzales jammed a finger in Wednesday's game and was removed after an inning of work, but he reported no troubles Thursday, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch's Derrick Goold reports.
He will remain in the starters' program and will presumably be back on the mound in game action next week. The five rotation spots are spoken for, but if Carlos Martinez (shoulder) is not ready for the start of the season, Gonzales along with Tim Cooney and Tyler Lyons will be in consideration for some starts in the early going.
