MiL Rehab Roundup: 7/8/13

Another day, another pair of Minor League rehab outings for Derek Jeter and Alex Rodriguez yesterday.

Jeter- Went 1-2 with a groundball single, 2 BB, and 1 strikeout playing the full game at DH.  The plan was originally for a rest day today, but Donnie Collins reported yesterday afternoon that Jeter will start at shortstop again tonight.

A-Rod- Went 0-3 in 8 innings as the DH for High-A Tampa.  No official word from the team on where and when he'll play again.  Given how long he's been out and the slow approach being taken with him so far, there's little reason to expect anything other than him continuing to play for Tampa for now.

In case you missed it, Michael Pineda was officially activated from the 60-day DL yesterday and assigned to Triple-A where he's scheduled to start again on Thursday.  He should be down there for a couple weeks to fully stretch out his pitch count and to "buy back" the year of free agency that was lost last season.
