Yankees owe rotation a shake-up as Weathers hits IL with forearm strain

The New York Yankees placed left-hander Ryan Weathers on the 15-day injured list with a left forearm flexor strain after he exited yesterday’s start against the Blue Jays. Brendan Beck was recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, and outfielder Cody Bellinger was reinstated from the 10-day IL.

Yankees Gear Up for Quick Comebacks as Fried Hits IL and Bellinger Returns

The Yankees placed Max Fried on a 15-day IL with an elbow bone bruise but expect a short absence, with Carlos Rodón ready as a starter depth option; if Fried misses a few starts, Will Warren or Ryan Weathers could shift to the bullpen.

Yankees Eye Right-Handed Outfielder as Spring Training Looms

The Yankees, after re-signing Cody Bellinger and Trent Grisham, remain in the market for a right-handed hitting outfielder to balance the lineup, with options dwindling as spring training approaches; Slater is off the board, Grichuk’s left-handed splits declined in 2025, and internal candidates like Jasson Dominguez face added pressure while Miguel Andujar left for the Padres, leaving Cashman with a roster not far from the one that fell to the Blue Jays in the 2025 ALDS.
