After waiting three days to wait for a kidney stone to pass to no avail, veteran backup catcher Gerald Laird had a procedure done to remove it Wednesday afternoon, Gonzalez said. Laird needs at least a few more days to recover and will not accompany the team to Philadelphia. With two other catchers on the roster in Brian McCann and Evan Gattis, the Braves have been able to cover his absence without putting Laird on the disabled list.
