Pedro Feliciano (shoulder) is scheduled to begin a rehabilitative throwing program on June 1.

Feliciano has not pitched at all this season because of a strained rotator cuff. There's no guarantee that he will be able to avoid setbacks and he shouldn't be counted on until after the All-Star break.

Dr. James Andrews advised Pedro Feliciano (shoulder) to begin a six-week conservative strengthening program.

Pedro Feliciano has a torn capsule in his left shoulder and is currently leaning toward having season-ending surgery.

Bad news for the Bombers, who gave the southpaw a two-year, $8 million contract with a club option for 2013 over the winter. Feliciano said that he will visit Dr. James Andrews next Monday and should have a final decision on Tuesday.

Pedro Feliciano is slated to undergo another MRI on his shoulder.

That doesn't sound good. The left-hander was previously delayed a week from throwing and now evidently is still having some soreness. Consider him out indefinitely until the results of the MRI are revealed.

Pedro Feliciano (shoulder) played catch Tuesday.

Feliciano has been shut down from throwing for the past two weeks, so it sounds like he is finally making progress. It doesn't take relievers long to get ready, but we doubt he will be a factor for the Yankees this month.

Pedro Feliciano (shoulder) hopes to gain clearance to resume throwing after seeing a doctor following the Yankees' weekend series with the Red Sox.

Feliciano originally was slated to start throwing this week, but he's obviously been pushed back. He said he doesn't think it will take him long to get ready once he starts throwing again, but we're thinking a late April return might be pushing it.

Pedro Feliciano (shoulder) said Thursday that doctors pushed him back from throwing this week.

Feliciano is currently on the disabled list with a strained left rotator cuff. He plans to play catch next week, but a return this month is looking more and more like a longshot.

Yankees GM Brian Cashman said the best-case scenario for Pedro Feliciano's (shoulder) return is late April.

Cashman complained that Feliciano was "abused" by the Mets the last few years, which is true, but it's something he surely factored into things before signing the left-hander to a two-year, $8 million deal over the offseason. Feliciano will be re-evaluated in about a week.

Yankees placed LHP Pedro Feliciano on the 15-day disabled list with a strained left rotator cuff.

Luis Ayala replaced him on the Opening Day roster. Feliciano will rest 10 days before being re-evaluated. He isn't likely to return until late-April. Feliciano finished with a 3.30 ERA and 56/30 K/BB ratio over 62 2/3 innings for the crosstown Mets in 2010. He signed a two-year, $8 million contract with the Yankees over the winter.

Pedro Feliciano has been shut down for the next 10 days due to ongoing soreness in his triceps.

Yankees trainers have asked that he refrain from even picking up a baseball over that time. Feliciano is likely to spend most of April at extended spring training. Luis Ayala and Steve Garrison are candidates to replace him.

Pedro Feliciano is still not over his triceps injury and will open the season on the disabled list.

Feliciano will hang back in Tampa at extended spring training to continue his rehab. As long as everything goes according to plan, he should be available out of the Yankees' bullpen by the middle of April.

Steve Garrison is a potential roster replacement. Feliciano's triceps injury was initially considered minor but he hasn't come along like the Yankees had hoped.

Pedro Feliciano (triceps) could begin the season on the disabled list.

The left-hander's triceps injury just hasn't come along like the Yankees had hoped. It's possible he'll recover enough in the next few days to avoid a DL stint, but either way, he doesn't figure to be out long.

Pedro Feliciano (triceps) threw another successful bullpen session Monday in Yankees camp.

"Feels good," the lefty told Erik Boland of Newsday. Feliciano was limited for several days due to soreness in his left triceps muscle, but he appears to be almost completely over the minor ailment. The Yankees are thinking he'll be fine for the start of the regular season.

Pedro Feliciano hasn't pitched for nine straight days due to soreness in his left triceps.

For what it's worth, the Yankees don't seem all that concerned. "He's getting a little extra rest here,'' skipper Joe Girardi said Friday. "He'll do a bullpen tomorrow. Guys go through this dead arm in spring training." Feliciano is expected to be fine for Opening Day.

Yankees signed LHP Pedro Feliciano to a two-year, $8 million contract.

The deal was agreed upon three weeks ago, but wasn't made official until after the new year. Feliciano will operate as a lefty specialist in the Yankees' bullpen this upcoming season. He finished with a 3.30 ERA and 56/30 K/BB ratio over 62 2/3 innings for the crosstown Mets in 2010. The 34-year-old has held left-handed hitters to a 214/.282/.297 career batting line.

Ken Rosenthal reported earlier that the contract was worth $9 million, but he sent out a correction on Twitter just moments ago. The new deal also contains a club option for 2013. Feliciano will serve as a left-handed relief specialist for the Yankees next season and should do quite well.

He posted a 3.30 ERA and 56/30 K/BB ratio over 62 2/3 innings for the Mets this past year and has held left-handed batters to a .214/.282/.297 batting line for his career. It's not an awful deal, given the kind of money some relievers have pulled in this winter. Feliciano will do well if used correctly.

Jon Heyman of SI.com reports that the Yankees are nearing a two-year, $8 million deal with free agent left-hander Pedro Feliciano.

In a world where the Red Sox are paying Bobby Jenks $12 million over two years and the Angels are paying Scott Downs $15 million over three years, this is far from a bad get for the Yanks. Feliciano, 34, posted a 3.30 ERA over 62 2/3 innings for the Mets this past season and has held left-handed hitters to a .214/.282/.297 batting line for his career. He should do well in the Bronx.

According to Bob Klapisch of the Bergen Record, the Yankees are "getting close" on Pedro Feliciano.

He has held left-handed batters to a .214/.282/.297 batting line for his career.
