Jeter out until Friday at earliest
Published 4/8/2008 by Bryan Hoch at Major League Baseball News
Derek Jeter will not play shortstop for the Yankees before this weekend at the earliest. Could Alex Rodriguez? Manager Joe Girardi said on Tuesday that the Yankees have not discussed using Rodriguez at shortstop while Jeter mends his strained upper left quadriceps, but the idea has not been explicitly ruled out, depending on how much action Jeter is expected to miss.

Tyler Kepner suggests the Yankees might move A-Rod over and start Morgan Ensberg at third. Jon Harper of the Daily News says Girardi shouldn't even think about A-Rod at short.
