Marcus Thames has retired from baseball.
Thames actually hasn't officially announced his retirement, but he didn't play in 2012 and has been hired as the new hitting coach for the Yankees' High-A affiliate in Tampa. The 35-year-old batted .246/.309/.485 with 115 homers over 10 major league seasons.
Jan 10 - 11:55 PM
Source:
Tampa Yankees on Twitter
Yankees signed OF Marcus Thames to a minor-league contract.
A solid role player for the Yankees a year ago, Thames hit just .197 with two home runs and seven RBI in 66 at-bats while battling calf and quad injuries as a member of the Dodgers this season. The owner of a career .260 average and .824 OPS against lefties, Thames should likely be up in New York at some point this summer as long as he can round back to full health.
Fri, Jul 22, 2011 10:12:00 AM

New York Post
Dodgers released OF Marcus Thames.
Thames was designated for assignment last week and officially cleared release waivers on Monday. He has struggled with calf injuries this season, batting just .197/.243/.333 with two homers over 70 plate appearances. The 34-year-old can't do much in the field, but he's worth a shot as a righty bat off the bench or a part-time DH for an American League team.
Tue, Jul 19, 2011 05:00:00 PM
Dodgers designated OF Marcus Thames for assignment.
The Dodgers signed Thames to a one-year, $1 million contract this offseason with the hope that he'd mash left-handed pitching. Instead he struggled mightily in 70 plate appearances, missing about a month with a quad strain, and posting a .197/.243/.333 slash line with two homers when healthy. Thames could still be salvaged, however. Between 2006-2010, as a member of the Tigers and Yankees, he had an .820 OPS and 94 homers in 1,547 plate appearances. A team in desperate need of outfield punch might give him a shot.

Francisco Cervelli
D.L.
Francisco Cervelli (hand) has played catch and caught a few bullpens, but it's unclear when he'll be allowed to begin swinging a bat.
"He’s just trying to get his hand stronger so he can do everything," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. Girardi added that he's not sure whether Cervelli will be ready to return before the All-Star break.

Mark Teixeira
Sidelined
Yankees GM Brian Cashman said Monday that he is "leaning personally" toward placing first baseman Mark Teixeira (wrist) on the 15-day disabled list.
But nothing has been made official yet. Teixeira underwent an MRI this weekend in New York that showed only inflammation (and no new structural damage) in his troublesome right wrist, but he is having trouble swinging the bat with confidence and might be better off with a few more weeks of rest and rehab. Teixeira is hitting .151/.270/.340 in 15 games since his activation.

Derek Jeter
D.L.
Derek Jeter (ankle) participated in hitting and fielding drills Friday at the Yankees' spring training complex.
Jeter hit off a tee and took swings in an indoor cage before resuming light infield work. It was the first time he has done any baseball activities since mid-April. Assuming he avoids setbacks, Jeter could be ready to rejoin the Yankees' lineup in about six weeks.

Eduardo Nunez
D.L.
Eduardo Nunez (oblique) has resumed baseball activities.
Nunez, on the DL since May 6, took indoor batting practice and fielded grounders at the Yankees' spring training complex. It's still not clear when he'll be sent on a rehab assignment, but he remains on track to be activated from the disabled list in early July.

D.L.
Alex Rodriguez (hip) is scheduled to face live pitching for the first time this year on Tuesday in Tampa.
A-Rod is finally beginning to take major strides in his recovery from January hip surgery. He ran the bases at 75 percent effort over the weekend and is now ready to begin working on his timing at the plate. The veteran third baseman will be activated from the disabled list shortly after the All-Star break if everything continues to go according to plan with his rehab.

Kevin Youkilis
D.L.
Yankees placed 3B Kevin Youkilis on the 15-day disabled list with a lumbar spine sprain.
No word yet on how long he may be sidelined, but since it's a recurring issue, it may be longer than 15 days. It's the same ailment that landed Youkilis on the disabled list at the end of April. He managed to hit just.146/.239/.220 with one RBI and 13 strikeouts in 41 at-bats after returning from the disabled list on May 31.

Curtis Granderson
D.L.
Curtis Granderson will have the pin removed from his fractured left pinkie finger this Thursday.
Granderson should then be cleared for light workouts. The outfielder has been on the disabled list (and mostly idle) since May 25 and is not expected to be ready to rejoin the Yankees until after the All-Star break.
