ALEX RODRIGUEZ TO BEGIN BASEBALL ACTIVITIES THURSDAY

The Yankees were notable for their inactivity before Sunday’s trade deadline,
but remember that they have some pretty good help on the way.

According to George A. King III of the New York Post, Yankees manager Joe
Girardi confirmed earlier today that Alex Rodriguez will begin baseball
activities Thursday in Tampa. Rodriguez underwent surgery on July 11 to repair a
slightly torn meniscus in his right knee.

“The idea is to start getting him doing some baseball stuff,” manager Joe
Girardi said Sunday. “I think once he gets going, it shouldn’t take that long.
It’s more just waiting for the knee to heal. I don’t think you’re talking about
having to do a week of rehab games. I think once we get it, it’ll go pretty
quickly.”


The Yankees haven’t given an indication about when Rodriguez will begin a rehab
assignment, but they are hopeful that he’ll be ready to return by the middle of
this month.

Rodriguez, 36, is hitting .295/.366/.485 with 13 homers, 52 RBI and an .852 OPS
over 344 plate appearances this season. Though the knee has surely played a
part, he hasn’t homered since June 11.
