MLB.com's Bryan Hoch writes that Mo left Tampa on Thursday to head down to Puerto Rico to support Panama's entry into the World Baseball Classic.
He will put on the team's uniform, wave the country's flag and participate in ceremonies. On his way back from shoulder surgery, he will not pitch. Mo will be away for three days, according to Brian Cashman.
On a related note,
Jack Curry shared a moment with Rivera, a few minutes after he had arrived in Puerto Rico.
