The Yankees don't know if Mark Teixeira is headed back to the disabled list, but they did get some good news on Sunday.

Teixeira doesn't have a new tear in his right wrist, but he is dealing with inflammation.

A torn tendon in the same wrist kept Teixeira out of New York's lineup until May 31 this season.

"That's a good thing," Joe Girardi said. "If he was to re-tear it, that would probably be it for the season. We're looking at some inflammation, and we're going to have to see how long it's going to take to get back."
