Guardians' George Valera: Begins rehab assignment

Valera (calf) began a rehab assignment at Triple-A Columbus on Tuesday, SI.com reports.

Valera was cleared to begin playing in games toward the end of spring training, and he'll now play a few more rehab contests in the minors before coming off the IL. Once healthy, he will either serve as a reserve outfielder for the big club or be optioned to Triple-A.
