FORT MYERS, Fla. -- New York Yankees centre fielder Jacoby Ellsbury was sent for an MRI Thursday of his ailing right calf, which was negative. Ellsbury hasnt played since March 14. He was scratched from Sundays game against Atlanta because of right calf tightness. "Im sure hell take BP tomorrow," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said before Thursday nights game against Boston. "We just wanted to make sure he was OK. They decided to do a precautionary. I dont determine if a guy gets a test. Thats our guys on the medical side. "Our people just decided lets be cautious and make sure. We got good news." Girardi said he did not have a specific number of days planned for Ellsbury to rest. "We want to get him out there and get ready for the season," Girardi said. "As soon as we can get him out there, well get him out there." Girardi said he hoped Ellsbury would play this weekend or by Tuesday. "We can accelerate with games in the minors," he said. Ellsbury agreed to a $153 million, seven-year contract in December after helping the Red Sox win a pair of World Series titles during seven seasons in Boston.

All-Star third baseman David Wright had a down season and finished with an injured shoulder, while first baseman Lucas Duda provided pop with 30 home runs.Wright and Cuddyer are friends from the same region of Virginia, and have spent offseasons working out together and playing racquetball.In the Mets outfield, Juan Lagares won a Gold Glove last week in centre.
