Indians Insider: Cabrera headed to Columbus while Sizemore wants action in Pittsburgh.

Center fielder Grady Sizemore says he should be activated Tuesday against Pittsburgh at PNC Park. Cabrera, meanwhile, said he’ll report to Class AAA Columbus on Monday to begin a rehab assignment after straining the A/C joint in his left shoulder.

Sizemore has been on the disabled list since May 31 with an inflamed left elbow. He said the Indians left it up to him on whether he should go on a rehab assignment or immediately rejoin the big league club.

“I just want to get back on the field,” said Sizemore, who spent the weekend at Wrigley Field testing the elbow.

My irrational love for all things Grady Sizemore has been seriously tested this season. It has survived. I mean, check out those muscles . . . I mean, that swing.

Rehab stints have always seemed like a waste to me, at least with position players. It would be interesting to see how players perform in them. I would guess that the MLE is pretty much the same as their performance in the proceeding month in the majors

My intuition is that teams are costing themselves $500k or so in value a year here
