Joba Chamberlain has been activated from the disabled list by the New York Yankees, and injured infielders Mark Teixeira and Kevin Youkilis might not be far behind.

Chamberlain was back in the bullpen for Tuesday night's Subway Series game against the New York Mets after missing a month with a strained muscle on his right side. To make room on the roster, left-hander David Huff was designated for assignment.

Teixeira and Youkilis both got five at-bats Tuesday during an extended spring training game in Florida, then headed out to begin their rehab assignments Wednesday with Double-A Trenton. Yankees manager Joe Girardi says it's possible both could be ready to rejoin the team after two games in Trenton.
