Teixeira Takes Swings In Pool
Posted: Fri Apr 19, 2013 8:20 pm
Yankees first baseman Mark Teixeira has taken his first swings as he ramps up his rehabilitation from a wrist injury.
Teixeira swung in chest-high water Tuesday after receiving clearance, doing so in a pool exclusively.
The progression to playing in rehab games will be a slow one, but he still hopes to be ready within the initial prognosis of eight to 10 weeks for recovery from a partially torn sheath in his right wrist.
