Brain Cashman spoke to the media on Monday and he gave out information on many of the Yankees injured stars. Here's what he had to say:
--On Mark Teixeira, Cashman said, "I'm leaning personally towards the disabled list there." Teixeira underwent an MRI in New York on Sunday that came back showing only inflammation in his right wrist, luckily no new tears. He received a cortisone shot and will be out for the next few days. "Not a player for seven days at a minimum" Cashman added.
--Michael Pineda will make his next start for the Tampa Yankees this Thursday in the Florida State League; and he'll be limited to around 80 pitches. Cashman said that Pineda has been sitting at 92 mph in his rehab outings, topping out at 94-95.
--Curtis Granderson is expected to have the pin removed from his hand on Thursday. Granderson continues to work his way back and we currently don't know the exact time we'll see him again on the field. More info on when he begins baseball activities will likely come on Thursday.
--Alex Rodriguez will face live pitching Tuesday in Tampa. I believe that this will be the first time that A-Rod will be facing live pitching during his rehab.
