Impact Ynoa made his first appearance in affiliated ball in two and a half months last weekend, when he began his rehab assignment at High-A Rome. Despite getting blasted for six runs on eight hits and one walk over two innings, Ynoa came away from the outing feeling healthy and will get a tougher test for his second rehab start. After tossing 51 pitches in his start for Rome, Ynoa will likely push his pitch count to the 60-to-70 range Friday. If all goes well Friday, Ynoa could be reinstated from the 60-day injured list and make his next start in the big leagues, though Atlanta has yet to formally announce its plans for the 23-year-old.
