Locastro (lat) will begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Locastro has been on the shelf since May 8 with a left lat strain, so he'll likely require multiple games in the minors before the Yankees are comfortable with bringing him back from the 10-day injured list. Once activated from the IL, Locastro will likely see limited use as a pinch-running specialist and late-inning defensive replacement in the Yankees outfield.
