Ellsbury has a new hip issue and will be shut down for a few days, so much for getting him back Thursday.
Aaron Hicks, on the other hand, is hitting off a tee and throwing today. He no longer feels pain and is seemingly a good shot to be back Monday when he is eligible.
Meanwhile, the reason NY signed Oliver Perez and traded (back) for Daniel Camarena in recent days is because both Heller and Gallegos (on the 40 man, not on the 25 man) are hurt currently, so they needed to add some healthy options in AAA if needed.
