Scott Effross Won't Be Available Until The Summer
9 months agoNew York Yankees reliever Scott Effross underwent back surgery and will not be ready to return until sometime in the summer, according to manager Aaron Boone. The right-hander missed the entire 2023 season after undergoing Tommy John surgery and will miss a hefty chunk of the 2024 campaign, as well. Most recently, the 30-year-old tossed a healthy 2.54 ERA across 60 outings with the Cubs and Yankees in the 2022 season. The late-blooming reliever has pitched in just two MLB seasons as he worked to a 3.68 ERA across 14 appearances with the Cubs in the 2021 campaign. Add it up and Effross sports a 2.78 ERA across 74 MLB appearances and could be a valued member for the Yankees down the stretch of the 2024 regular season.
