Cora, Casey Pawtucket-bound

Alex Cora (sore right elbow) and Sean Casey (hip strain) will be heading to Pawtucket this week for what they hope will be brief rehab assignments.

Cora is expected to join the PawSox for games Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Casey will be reporting in time for games Thursday and Friday.

The plan for Cora is to have him play a position, either second or short, Wednesday night, serve as the designated hitter for Thursday's 12:05 game and then play a position, either second or short, in Friday night's game.

Casey, meanwhile, will start at first base for the day game on Thursday and serve as the designated hitter Friday night.
