Boston Red Sox third baseman Kevin Youkilis is expected to begin a minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Pawtucket on Wednesday, the team announced. The third baseman will serve as the PawSox's designated hitter and get three at-bats, then will play the field Thursday. Barring any setbacks, he could rejoin the Red Sox in Philadelphia on Friday. Youkilis has been out since April 29 with a back strain. He was eligible to be activated on Monday. In his stead, rookie third baseman Will Middlebrooks has hit .304 with four homers and 13 RBIs in 11 games.
