Is there some way to see the RPM changelog entries for a prospective yum update? Ideally I'd like to see just the entries that are newer than the version of the package I already have.
I saw a new kernel in today's yum-cron email and I'd like to know what it's about and how urgent the issue is for me.
You may want to look into git.centos.org. For example, spec file diff for the latest C7 kernel update can be seen here:

Hi Akemi,
Thanks for the hint about git.centos.org. But, is there some yum/dnf utility which can show the changelog changes? If not, then I may expand one of my rpm tools to do it.
Simon
yum -q --changelog xxx.rpm
will show the changelog.
