Hideki Okajima has signed with the Softbank Hawks.
"While I didn't think I would be able to play baseball this year, Softbank was the first team that I heard from," Okajima said. "There is pressure, but I want to show off what I did in America." Okajima failed a physical with the Yankees in February and was subsequently released. The 36-year-old lefty posted a 3.11 ERA over 261 career major league relief appearances but spent most of 2011 at Triple-A Pawtucket.

Yankees released LHP Hideki Okajima.
An undisclosed injury caused Okajima to fail his physical, so he won't get a dime from the Bombers and is now free to sign with another team. The 36-year-old lefty reportedly was considering retirement earlier this offseason, so perhaps he'll just decide to call it quits. He owns a 3.11 ERA over 261 career relief appearances but spent most of 2011 at Triple-A.
Feb 17 - 12:53 PM
David Waldstein of the New York Times reports that Hideki Okajima has failed his physical with the Yankees.
It's being reported by a couple other outlets, a well. Assuming it's true, his contract with the Yankees would be voided and he'd become a free agent. It's not clear what ailment caused Okajima to fail. The 36-year-old lefty reportedly was considering retirement before he caught on with the Yanks, so perhaps that will be an option for him again.

Yankees signed LHP Hideki Okajima to a minor league contract.
The deal also includes an invite to spring training. Okajima, 36, only made seven appearances with the Red Sox this past season before spending the rest of the year in the minors, but he could still have some value as a left-handed specialist. The veteran southpaw owns a 3.11 ERA over 261 career relief appearances.

Brett Gardner
D.L.
Brett Gardner (elbow) has had another setback and will not be allowed to hit off tee until Monday.
The Yankees were hoping that Gardner would be able to pick up a bat Thursday, but manager Joe Girardi said the outfielder still has some stiffness in his right elbow. It doesn't sound like a major setback, but it's the second one Gardner has experienced. His return doesn't appear to be on the horizon.

Michael Pineda (shoulder) told Sweeny Murti of WFAN that he expects to be "100 percent" by spring training next year.
"Yeah, the doctor before the surgery, he told me, 'Hey no worries. You can’t pitch this year, but I promise next year you’ll be ready 100 percent in spring training.' That’s what he told me before the surgery," explained Pineda. The 23-year-old right-hander needed surgery last month to repair a torn labrum in his shoulder and while he's young enough that there's still hope for his career, setbacks are certainly possible. He's no sure thing to be ready for spring training.

Mariano Rivera
D.L.
Yankees transferred RHP Mariano Rivera from the 15-day disabled list to the 60-day disabled list.
It clears a spot on the 40-man roster for Andy Pettitte. Rivera is out for the season with a torn meniscus and ACL in his right knee.

David Robertson

David Robertson (oblique) will begin his rehab work Thursday in Florida.
Robertson is eligible to return from the disabled list Sunday, but that won't happen. It's possible he could be ready for the June 1-3 series at Detroit. Yankees manager Joe Girardi won't say whether Rafael Soriano or Robertson will close when the latter returns. "Here's my prayer: Let's just get Robby back," Girardi said. "Let's just get him back to where he's comfortable and get him in a game before we start making official decisions."

Pedro Feliciano
D.L.
Yankees placed LHP Pedro Feliciano on the 60-day disabled list.
He was cleared to make room for the newly-signed David Aardsma. Feliciano underwent rotator cuff surgery last September and is expected to miss most of the 2012 season.

David Aardsma
D.L.
David Aardsma (elbow) has begun throwing sliders.
The rehabbing right-hander had been limited to fastball-only bullpen sessions for the past couple of weeks, but he's beginning to take significant steps forward. Aardsma, who underwent Tommy John reconstructive elbow surgery last July, could be a candidate to join the Yankees' bullpen before this year's All-Star break.
May 15

Joba Chamberlain
D.L.
Joba Chamberlain (ankle) is no longer wearing a walking boot.
The update was provided via his personal Twitter account. Chamberlain, who dislocated his right ankle in March, now only needs a basketball ankle brace to get around. He's also ramping up his workload throwing and working out, which is significant since he's still less than a year removed from Tommy John surgery. There's a chance he could rejoin the Yankees' bullpen late this season if all goes well.
May 8
12
Brad Meyers
D.L.
Yankees placed RHP Brad Meyers on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to March 26, with a right labrum strain.
Meyers, who was selected from the Nationals in December's Rule 5 Draft, didn't appear in a game this spring after injuring his should while working out during the offseason. The timetable for his return isn't yet clear, but he'll likely need to spend a couple of weeks in the minors before being a legitimate consideration for a call-up.

Cesar Cabral
D.L.
Yankees transferred LHP Cesar Cabral from the 15-day disabled list to the 60-day disabled list.
The move clears a spot for the newly-claimed Matt Antonelli on the 40-man roster. Cabral, a Rule 5 pick, was diagnosed with a stress fracture in his left elbow during spring training.
