Michael Pineda (shoulder) will make his Grapefruit League debut on Friday. He'll follow Hiroki Kuroda, who will start the game. Pineda's surgically-repaired shoulder isn't an issue anymore, but the Yankees have brought the big righty along slowly this spring. Reports on Pineda's stuff in the early going have been encouraging as he competes for the fifth spot in the rotation.
