Yesavage (shoulder) will begin a rehab assignment with Single-A Dunedin on Friday, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca reports.

It was reported previously that Yesavage would throw a simulated game, but he will make an official game appearance instead. The right-hander is slated to go three innings in what will be his first outing since last year's World Series. Yesavage is coming back from a right shoulder impingement and will require multiple rehab starts before rejoining the Blue Jays' rotation, but a return before the end of the month is looking increasingly plausible.
