Andy Pettitte Scheduled For Minor League Rehab Start

Andy Pettitte is not far away from returning from a groin injury. After throwing an incident-free bullpen Monday morning, he's off to AA Trenton for some rehab:

After completing his bullpen session on Monday with no issues, Andy Pettitte is set to make a rehab start on Wednesday night for Double-A Trenton.
...
Pettitte will start Game 1 of Trenton's playoff series with New Hampshire on Wednesday night. He's scheduled to throw 65 pitches or complete four innings -- whichever comes first, according to manager Joe Girardi.

It's unknown if Pettitte will get a second rehab start before returning to the Yankees. If he comes back after one start in Trenton, he'll be on a low pitch count at first. If he gets two starts in Trenton, however, then he should be at close to full strength. Whatever he does and wherever he is a week from now, Pettitte should be all good to go once the big league playoffs roll around.
