Jiménez has been medically cleared to resume baseball activities at the team’s complex in Glendale, Ariz., the Sox announced in a news release before Monday’s game against the Tampa Bay Rays at Guaranteed Rate Field.
Jiménez has been out since rupturing his left pectoral tendon during a March 24 Cactus League game against the Oakland Athletics while attempting to rob Sean Murphy of a home run.
The Sox said this phase of the rehab process is estimated to take at least four weeks and it’s possible he could be cleared after that for a rehab assignment with a minor-league affiliate.
