Here are a few Tuesday morning PRO Rumors:

• According to Anthony DiComo of MLB.com Yankees first baseman Mark Teixeira left Monday’s Grapefruit League game against the Orioles after being hit by a pitch on the right arm. No tests are scheduled at this point, and it is being called a right elbow contusion. The Yankees hope that it is nothing more serious. Teixiera is a premier power hitter in the lineup, and hit .292 last season while leading the Yankees with 39 homers and 122 RBIs.
• The official San Francisco Giant’s Twitter account says that Todd Wellemeyer may be the Giant’s #4 starter instead of Jonathan Sanchez. The Giants have 4 days off in April, so you may see Sanchez shifted over to extended relief during his scheduled throwing days to get more work in.
• The Giants’ right field position is not settled yet. Nate Schierholtz was expected to be the starter, but his inconsistent bat may have prevented him for securing the job. John Bowker and Mark DeRosa will get playing time in right over the next few days. (Andrew Baggarly, San Jose Mercury)
• The Associated Press says that 2009 No. 1 overall pick Stephen Strasburg of the Washington Nationals will make his Minor League debut on April 11 for Double-A Harrisburg against Altoona.
• The Texas Rangers have a scout watching Mike Lowell of the Boston Red Sox. Could another trade happen? (Gorden Edes, ESPNBoston.com)
• The Padres need to add Matt Stairs to the 40-man roster so expect the Padres to make a move to remove somebody from the 40-man. (Corey Brock, MLB.com)
