Cody Bellinger Begins Rehab Assignment Thursday

Yankees outfielder Cody Bellinger (hamstring) is set to begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre this Thursday. Manager Aaron Boone expects Bellinger to play in at least two games before potentially rejoining the major league roster. His return is highly anticipated as the Yankees manage the health of an offensive core that also includes Giancarlo Stanton and Aaron Judge.
