Pomeranz ready to rejoin Red Sox rotation

BOSTON -- Red Sox left-hander Drew Pomeranz, who's been recovering from a strained left forearm flexor since spring training, felt good after his second rehab start and could return to the rotation within a week.

Red Sox manager Alex Cora said Saturday that Pomeranz is likely to start either the final game in Anaheim on Thursday or the first game in Oakland on Friday.

However, with rain in the forecast Sunday and Monday, Pomeranz could be pushed back a bit.

Pomeranz, who started this season on the disabled list, has made two rehab starts, the second coming Friday for Double A Portland.
