Despite erratic rehab outing, Aroldis set to return

TRENTON, N.J. -- Despite an erratic outing for Double-A Trenton on Friday night at Arm & Hammer Park, Yankees closer Aroldis Chapman feels he's ready to join the big league club in Oakland this weekend.

"It feels good to get reunited with the team," said Chapman through a team translator. "When you're up there in The Show, all of the emotion and all of that is a little different. I feel like I am ready to be up there and help my team. Right now, the plan is to be activated Sunday."

Prior to landing on the 10-day disabled list on May 14 with left rotator cuff inflammation, Chapman had gone 1-0 with a 3.
