Clarke Schmidt Could Start On Wednesday
18 seconds agoNew York Yankees right-hander Clarke Schmidt (shoulder) said he feels good a day after throwing a 24-pitch bullpen session in camp. Although nothing has been announced, Schmidt could return to the mound and start Wednesday's Grapefruit League contest versus the Philadelphia Phillies. Schmidt noted on Tuesday that he wouldn't be throwing bullpens if he was dealing with a serious injury, and he still is hoping he'll be allowed to make his 2025 debut on April 3 against the Arizona Diamondbacks. The 29-year-old is firmly cemented in the Yankees' starting rotation (if healthy), although he probably isn't going to be a smart DFS play in his first start of the year if he gets the green light to face Arizona. Schmidt has the stuff to build on what was a strong 2024 campaign that was interrupted by a three-month stint on the injured list due to a right-lat strain.
