Pineda began the season on the disabled list with shoulder tendinitis; he attempted to make a rehab start in Tampa on Saturday, but he made it just 15 pitches before aggravating the injury. The Yankees shut him down again. According to general manager Brian Cashman, there's reason to believe Pineda reinjured the shoulder on the very last of his 15 pitches.
