Yankees' Gerrit Cole: Rehab start could come next week
Rotowire
Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Saturday that there's a chance Cole (elbow) will begin a rehab assignment as soon as this coming week, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.
Cole threw a live batting practice session Saturday without issue, which was the second time he's faced hitters since he resumed a throwing program. It sounds like he could be asked to throw another live BP, but beginning a rehab assignment also appears to be on the table. Cole will need multiple rehab starts before rejoining the Yankees' rotation, so he's still a few weeks away even if all goes well.

Yankees' Jose Trevino: Still out Saturday
Rotowire

Trevino had to leave Thursday's game due to an illness, and it will now cause him to miss his second consecutive start Saturday. Austin Wells will once again start at catcher and bat eighth.

Yankees' DJ LeMahieu: Moved to 60-day IL
Rotowire
The Yankees transferred LeMahieu (foot) to the 60-day injured list Saturday.
LeMahieu's move to the 60-day IL has no impact on his expected return date of May 28. It will, however, free up a 40-man roster spot for Kevin Smith to temporarily fill in for the injured Jon Berti (calf). LeMahieu will operate as New York's primary third baseman once he returns from the injured list, though he figures to receive more off days initially as he eases his way back from a non-displaced fracture of his right foot.

Yankees' Kevin Smith: Selected from Triple-A
Rotowire
The Yankees selected Smith's contract from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Saturday.
Smith spent time with the Yankees for a short stint in mid-April, though he never registered a plate appearance while in New York. He has slashed .204/.270/.286 across 111 plate appearances in the minors this season, and his time with the Yankees will likely be short-lived again due to DJ LeMahieu (foot) trending toward a return during the upcoming series against the Angels.

Yankees' Jon Berti: Hits injured list with calf strain
Rotowire
The Yankees placed Berti on the 10-day injured list Saturday with a left calf strain.
Berti was in visible pain after falling to the ground as he began to run toward first base during Friday's game, and it will officially cost him at least 10 days as he heads to the injured list. The Red Sox's trainers appeared to be working near Berti's Achilles tendon while he was on the ground, though imaging showed he only suffered a calf strain as a result of the incident. Kevin Smith will come up from Triple-A to take Berti's roster spot.

Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton: Clubs another homer
Rotowire
Stanton went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's 8-0 win over the Padres.
Stanton hit the last of the Yankees' three third-inning homers off Yu Darvish. Over the last 15 games, Stanton has gone deep seven times while adding 11 RBI and eight runs scored. He's more than doubled his homer total for the year in that span -- the designated hitter is now at 13 long balls in 2024. He's added a .246/.295/.520 slash line with 29 RBI, 23 runs scored, eight doubles and no stolen bases over 183 plate appearances.

Yankees' Gleyber Torres: Goes yard in win
Rotowire
Torres went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 8-0 win over the Padres.
Torres has gone 12-for-45 (.267) over his last 12 contests, adding three homers and eight RBI in that span. The second baseman started the year slow, but he's come around over the last couple of weeks while retaining a near-everyday role. For the season, he's slashing .221/.298/.318 with four homers, 15 RBI, 25 runs scored, seven doubles and four stolen bases over 219 plate appearances.

Yankees' Aaron Judge: Homer streak at three games
Rotowire
Judge went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's 8-0 win over the Padres.
Judge is dialed in at the plate with a homer in three straight games and 10 long balls over his last 18 contests. In that longer span, he's gone 25-for-60 (.417) with 18 RBI and 10 doubles. On the year, Judge has 16 homers, 37 RBI, 35 runs scored, two stolen bases, 17 doubles and a .275/.411/.619 slash line over 53 contests. He's enjoyed good health and a productive lineup around him in 2024, and while a repeat of his 62-homer campaign from 2022 remains unlikely, he's still among the best sluggers in the majors.

Yankees' Juan Soto: Blasts homer Friday
Rotowire
Soto went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run, a double and a walk in Friday's 8-0 win over the Padres.
See Also2024 NBA playoffs bracket, schedule, scores, games today: Celtics going for 3-0 lead against PacersSoto's homer stretched the Yankees' lead to 3-0 in the third inning. The superstar outfielder has gone 11-for-27 (.407) with five homers and nine RBI over his last seven contests. This was his fourth multi-hit effort in that span, lifting his slash line to .315/.413/.581 through 53 games this season. Soto has added 14 homers, 43 RBI, 39 runs scored, four stolen bases, 10 doubles and a triple. The Yankees have won 10 of their last 12 games, and Soto's been doing his part to contribute to that success.

Yankees' Carlos Rodon: Throws six shutout innings
Rotowire
Rodon (6-2) earned the win Friday over the Padres, pitching six shutout innings while allowing three hits and three walks with two strikeouts.
Rodon wasn't dominant, but the Padres' offense didn't find much success. This was a fourth straight quality start for the southpaw, who has won all of those outings while allowing just five runs over 24.1 innings. Rodon has had just one bad start this season -- May 2 in Baltimore, when he got tagged for six earned runs over four innings. He has a 2.95 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 57:19 K:BB over 61 innings through 11 starts on the season. The 31-year-old is projected to make his next start on the road versus the Angels in a favorable matchup.

Yankees' Jon Berti: Exits with injury
Rotowire
Berti was removed from Friday's game against the Padres with an apparent leg injury, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.
Berti collapsed to the ground running out of the batter's box and was in visible pain after hitting a groundball to second base in the ninth inning. Athletic trainers immediately began tending to his lower left leg -- near his Achilles tendon -- and the 34-year-old infielder couldn't put any weight on his left leg as he was helped off the field. The Yankees will presumably take Berti in for imaging, and it's very possible he requires a trip to the injured list.

Yankees' Ian Hamilton: Could return Sunday
Rotowire
Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Friday that he expects Hamilton (illness) to be back for Sunday's series finale against the Padres, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.
Hamilton was placed on the 7-day COVID-19 injured list Monday, and the right-hander appears to have recovered from the illness. Over 19 appearances this season, Hamilton has a 3.18 ERA, 1.41 WHIP and six holds across 22.2 innings.

Yankees' Gerrit Cole: Facing hitters again Saturday
Rotowire
Cole (elbow) will throw a live batting practice session Saturday, Chris Kirschner of The Athleticreports.
It will be the second time Cole has faced live hitters, with his first session taking place Tuesday when he threw about 20 pitches. While Cole is eligible to return from the 60-day IL at the end of May, he'll need multiple rehab starts before joining the Yankees' rotation.

Yankees' Oswaldo Cabrera: Sitting out Friday
Rotowire
Cabrera is not in the starting lineup for Friday's series opener against the Padres.
Cabrera will take a seat Friday after starting each of the last three games, as Jon Berti gets the nod at third base against Padres right-hander Yu Darvish. Cabrera is slashing .256/.298/.349 with one home run and four RBI in May.

Yankees' Yoendrys Gomez: Recalled from Triple-A
Rotowire
The Yankees recalled Gomez from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Friday.
With Nick Burdi (hip) headed to the injured list, Gomez will fill the opening in New York's bullpen. The 24-year-old righty pitched two scoreless innings during his MLB debut last season and has posted a 3.62 ERA and 1.44 WHIP through 27.1 frames this year at Triple-A.

Yankees' Nick Burdi: Placed on injured list
Rotowire
The Yankees placed Burdi on the 15-day injured list Friday with right hip inflammation.
Burdi was only able to get through one-third of an inning during Thursday's win over Seattle, recording his lone out via strikeout and walking the other two batters he faced. It's unclear whether or not his hip had any impact on his performance, but the 31-year-old righty will miss at least the next 15 days. Yoendrys Gomez will come up from Triple-A to take Burdi's spot in the bullpen.

Yankees' Anthony Volpe: Reaches double-digit steals
Rotowire
Volpe went 2-for-5 with a double, a run and a stolen base against the Mariners in Thursday's 5-0 victory.
Volpe led off the seventh inning with a double, stole third base and subsequently scored on a Juan Soto single. It was the 10th theft in 12 tries for Volpe, who has now reached double-digit steals in each of his first two MLB campaigns. The shortstop is on pace to exceed last year's numbers in most categories except power -- he has six homers through 51 contests after going deep 21 times in 159 games last season -- and his .278/.349/.429 slash line highlights his substantial growth at the plate.
