Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter expects to play on Tuesday in Oakland.

Jeter has been fighting a head cold in recent days and sat out Sunday's game after coming out of Saturday's early.

"It's really not a big deal," Jeter said.

The Yankees will begin a nine-game road trip on Tuesday. Jeter has a hit in each of this season's 11 games.
