Dustin McGowan (forearm) is scheduled to begin a rehab assignment Saturday with Single-A Dunedin. McGowan will throw only two innings in his rehab debut but should progress quickly to normal starter-length outings. He hasn't appeared in a major league game since 2008 due to shoulder problems and recently began experiencing forearm stiffness. The hope is that all those injury problems are now behind him.
