19 Chris Stewart, C

Yankees catcher Chris Stewart, who has missed the last four starts due to a groin injury, completed more tee and toss work Tuesday, the Journal News reports. 

Manager Joe Girardi said he expects Stewart back in the lineup over the weekend. In fact, Stewart could be used Tuesday in an emergency. 

Yankees catcher Chris Stewart missed a third-straight start Monday at Baltimore because of a groin injury. Stewart, who has become the primary starter with Francisco Cervelli on the disabled list, is batting .316 (6 for 19) in his last six games.

Stewart said he's feeling better, but he thinks it will be a few more days before he's in the lineup, according to The Journal News.

Yankees catcher Chris Stewart would be available Sunday against the Blue Jays in an emergency situation only, according to the Journal News and manager Joe Girardi. 

Stewart, who tweaked his groin Thursday, won't be starting for at least a few more days.

"I have told him that tomorrow maybe we’ll start some tee and toss and see where he’s at in that situation, moving around," Girardi said. "He’s still a guy who I would not hesitate to put in there if I had to, but I figured if you can get one more day in a sense, where it gives you almost 36 hours, let’s take it, take advantage of it. I don’t know if he would play Tuesday, but I want to know that he’s better so we could make a decision. He does feel better; he told me."
