MiL Rehab Roundup

There are now a trio of notable MiL rehab assignments taking place in Yankeeland with Derek Jeter starting his last night for Triple-A SWB.  All 3 guys were in action yesterday at their respective levels.  Here's how they did:

Jeter- Went 0-2 with a groundout and lineout and played 5 innings at shortstop, getting just one chance to field a groundball and doing it successfully.  He'll DH in today's game and then be re-evaluated Monday to determine next steps.

Michael Pineda- Started the game for Triple-A SWB last night and had a much better performance than his previous outing.  Pineda pitched 5 innings and allowed 2 ER on 4 H and 2 BB while striking out 7.  He threw  78 pitches in the outing.  His 30-day rehab window expires tomorrow and with his pitch count that low I expect he'll be assigned to Triple-A for another few weeks to fully stretch out.

Alex Rodriguez- A-Rod went 1-2 w/ an HBP and a R scored for High-A Tampa last night and fielded all balls hit to him cleanly in 6 innings at third base.  No report on what the plan is for him today, but he needs ABs so maybe a DH day.
