Batters
Pos	Role	Name
C	1	Francisco Cervelli D.L. Francisco Cervelli will have the stitches removed from his right hand Tuesday. Cervelli fractured his hand late last month when he was struck by a foul tip. His cast is expected to come off in three weeks while he's about five weeks away from baseball activities. Chris Stewart and Austin Romine will continue to split catching duties for now. May 7
	2	Chris Stewart Sidelined Chris Stewart (groin) estimated Monday that it will be likely be a few more days before he's ready to return to the lineup. Stewart injured his left groin on an awkward slide into third base last Thursday and hasn't played since. An MRI came back negative, so he's optimistic that he'll avoid a trip to the disabled list. Austin Romine will continue to handle the load behind the plate for now. May 20
	3	Austin Romine
1B	1	Mark Teixeira D.L. Mark Teixeira (wrist) went 1-for-2 with a walk Monday in his first extended spring training game. Teixeira reported feeling "good" on his personal Twitter feed afterward. The first baseman is currently aiming to be activated from the disabled list by May 31, but the Yankees are at the top of the American League East standings and could decide to play it safe by letting his minor league rehab assignment linger into early June. Teixeira is on his way back from a torn tendon sheath. May 20
	2	Lyle Overbay
2B	1	Robinson Cano
	2	Alberto Gonzalez
SS	1	Derek Jeter D.L. Derek Jeter (ankle) is close to getting the walking boot on his left foot removed again. Jeter had a routine checkup recently and was told his left ankle is healing. Once the boot is removed, he'll be eased into baseball activities again. The future Hall of Famer won't be an option at shortstop for the Yankees until after the All-Star break. May 16
	2	Eduardo Nunez D.L. Yankees placed SS Eduardo Nunez on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to May 6, with a rib cage injury. Nunez recently resumed swinging a bat, but he's obviously still not feeling well enough to be playing. The Yankees will continue to roll with Jayson Nix at shortstop, with Alberto Gonzalez getting called up to provide infield depth. May 12
	3	Jayson Nix
	4	Reid Brignac
3B	1	Alex Rodriguez D.L. Alex Rodriguez (hip) fielded grounders and took 25 swings in an indoor batting cage Monday at the Yankees' minor league complex in Tampa, Florida. Kicking off his third week of on-field activities following hip surgery, Rodriguez also ran from pole to pole near the warning track four times. "Not bad," said Rodriguez. It's not clear when he'll begin playing in games, but the Yankees hope to have him back around midseason. May 20
	2	Kevin Youkilis D.L. Kevin Youkilis (back) took three at-bats in an extended spring training game on Tuesday. It was his first bit of game action since landing on the disabled list with a lumbar spine sprain. Youkilis' recovery has gone slower than expected, but he's finally made some strides. The Yankees haven't revealed a timetable for his return, but early June seems about right. May 21
	3	David Adams
LF	1	Curtis Granderson
	2	Vernon Wells
CF	1	Brett Gardner
RF	1	Ichiro Suzuki
	2	Ben Francisco
DH	1	Travis Hafner
Starting Pitcher
Pos	Role	Name
S	1	CC Sabathia
	2	Hiroki Kuroda
	3	Andy Pettitte D.L. Yankees placed LHP Andy Pettitte on the 15-day disabled list with a strained trapezius muscle. Pettitte suffered the injury during Thursday's start against the Mariners. It's believed to be minor, but the Yankees don't want to take any chances with the 40-year-old southpaw. Vidal Nuno is slated to replace him on the active roster and will likely get a start or two. May 17
	4	Phil Hughes
	5	Ivan Nova D.L. Yankees manager Joe Girardi indicated that Ivan Nova (triceps, side) is slated to pitch Monday in Tampa. Nova, currently sidelined with triceps inflammation, experienced discomfort in his upper back while playing catch over the weekend. However, it apparently wasn't a major setback. The assumption is that he'll pitch in extended spring training on Monday, though there's nothing official on that yet. David Phelps will continue to fill his spot in the rotation for now. May 16
	6	David Phelps
	7	Michael Pineda D.L. Michael Pineda (shoulder) is scheduled to throw 50 pitches Friday, either in extended spring training or an intrasquad game. Yankees manager Joe Girardi didn't disclose any plans about a rehab assignment, but he expects Pineda to pitch in the majors at some point this summer. "We’ll continue to build him up," said Girardi. "Starters, as you know, take a lot longer than relievers because you have to get them to 100 pitches. For a kid that hasn’t pitched in a couple of years, that’s something you may want to see a couple of times to make sure he’s ready to go every fifth day." May 16
	8	Vidal Nuno
Relief Pitcher
Pos	Role	Name
R	1	Mariano Rivera
	2	David Robertson
	3	Boone Logan
	4	Joba Chamberlain D.L. Yankees manager Joe Girardi said Thursday that Joba Chamberlain (oblique) needs at least one more rehab appearance before coming off the disabled list. Chamberlain gave up two hits in a scoreless frame Tuesday night for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, but the Yankees think he needs more work before returning. The 27-year-old has been sidelined since late April with an oblique strain. May 16
	5	Shawn Kelley
	6	Adam Warren
	7	Cesar Cabral D.L. Cesar Cabral (elbow) threw a scoreless inning Wednesday in an extended spring training game. Cabral worked around a single by Delmon Young to complete the frame. The 24-year-old left-hander missed all of 2012 with a stress fracture in his elbow. It's not clear when he'll begin an official minor league rehab assignment. Apr 17
	8	Preston Claiborne
	9	Dellin Betances
