May 15 Updating a previous report, The Associated Press reports New York Yankees 3B Alex Rodriguez (quadriceps) is scheduled to play in the first of three spring training games Saturday, May 17. He will play third base in two of the three games and is slated to bat five times each day. KFFL


May 15 Rodriguez (quadriceps) ran the bases without incident on Thursday and remains on schedule to return to the team on Tuesday, Newsday reports.

Recommendation: The plan for Rodriguez is to work out Friday, play at third in an extended spring training game on Saturday, DH in a simulated game on Sunday, and then go back to play third at another extended spring training game on Monday. If all is well after all that, Rodriguez would be available to rejoin the Bombers on Tuesday.

May 15 Rodriguez is scheduled to play in the first of three extended spring training games on Saturday.

Advice: A-Rod hasn't seen game action since April 28 because of a strained right quadriceps. He hopes to rejoin the team Tuesday. Rodriguez will play third in two of the three games, and is slated to bat five times each day. Rodriguez will be able to bat every inning in the less formal extended spring games.
