Schmidt's Biceps Injury Ends Season, Complicating Yankees' Playoff Roster

The New York Yankees placed right-hander Clarke Schmidt on the 15-day injured list with right biceps neuritis, effectively ending his season. The move, retroactive to September 21, removes a key bullpen option for the postseason. Manager Aaron Boone stated Schmidt is unlikely to return this year, though the injury is considered minor long-term. The Yankees recalled Bradley Hanner from Triple-A to fill the spot. This development forces New York to finalize a crowded playoff roster, potentially featuring 16 position players and only 10 pitchers, while they await the return of other injured stars like Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton.

Yankees poised to activate Clarke Schmidt for postseason bullpen push

The Yankees are likely to activate Clarke Schmidt from the 60-day injured list for Wednesday’s series finale in Minnesota, after optioning Bradley Hanner to Triple-A to clear a bullpen spot and facing a second 40-man move (Fernando Cruz could be moved to the 60-day IL). Schmidt, returning from Tommy John surgery, has appeared in rehab outings across two minor-league levels and averaged 94.1 mph on his four-seam fastball in Triple-A. While there isn’t enough time to stretch him as a starter this year, New York hopes he can contribute in the postseason bullpen and potentially take on a longer-term role in 2027, joining a crowded bullpen that includes Bednar, Headrick, Blackburn, Schreiber, Fulmer, Weathers, Hill and Yarbrough. The club also weighed waivers for Chase Hampton and could recall Angel Chivilli if needed, as it finalizes its October bullpen plans.”

Yankees DFA Cabrera to clear spot for Schmidt’s return

The Yankees designated Oswaldo Cabrera for assignment to open a roster spot for Clarke Schmidt, who has been reinstated from the 60-day IL; Cabrera, a versatile 27-year-old with solid minor-league numbers and a modest MLB track record, is likely to clear waivers given his $1.2M salary and remaining option year, while Schmidt returns as a reliever after Tommy John surgery.

Cole’s Home-Run Blues Put Yankees on Edge as Bellinger Heats Up

Gerrit Cole has surrendered seven home runs in a two-start stretch, raising questions about whether his pitch mix needs adjustments, though the Yankees stress health isn’t the issue. Offensively, Cody Bellinger has started to heat up with three homers in four games, Clarke Schmidt is nearing a return after a productive rehab outing, and Chase Hampton was claimed off waivers by the Nationals to clear 40-man space for Aaron Judge’s anticipated return.

Yankees' Jasson Domínguez Nears Rehab End, Likely Headed to Minors

Jasson Domínguez's rehab is going well, but with no outfield openings in the majors, he will likely stay in the minors. Aaron Judge has rebounded from a slow start, setting a Yankees record with 25 extra-base hits in May. Clarke Schmidt sought advice from other pitchers on dealing with a lat strain. The Yankees also swapped out pitchers, activating Cody Poteet and demoting Cody Morris.

Yankees' Clarke Schmidt Out 4-6 Weeks with Lat Injury

The Yankees have shut down starter Clarke Schmidt for 4-6 weeks due to a lat strain, sidelining him until after the All-Star Break. Schmidt, who has a 2.52 ERA over 11 starts, will need time to regain MLB readiness. Cody Poteet will fill his rotation spot, while Gerrit Cole is nearing a return from injury. The Yankees' rotation, despite Schmidt's absence, remains one of the strongest in the majors.

Clarke Schmidt Shines with Career-High Performance for Yankees

Clarke Schmidt has significantly improved his performance for the Yankees in the 2024 season, increasing his pitch velocity and effectiveness, which has helped the team maintain their lead in the American League East despite injuries to key players. His advancements have been crucial, especially with the absence of Gerrit Cole and the trade of other pitching depth for Juan Soto.
