Oswald Peraza Dealing With Hamstring Tightness

New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said shortstop Oswald Peraza (hamstring) is dealing with right hamstring tightness. The hamstring injury is most likely why Peraza didn't get the call to the big leagues when veteran Josh Donaldson (hamstring) was placed on the 10-day injured list Saturday. He is off to a hot start in 2023, […]

Josh Donaldson Lands On 10-Day Injured List

New York Yankees third baseman Josh Donaldson (hamstring) landed on the 10-day injured list on Saturday, retroactive to April 6. The veteran tweaked his right hamstring during Wednesday's meeting against the Orioles. Donaldson has struggled this season, batting a miserable .125 with two hits, one RBI, and one homer (16 at-bats) while striking out six […]

New York Yankees relief pitcher Jonathan Loaisiga (elbow) was placed on the 15-day injured list on Saturday, retroactive to April 6. The 28-year-old has compiled a 2.70 ERA this season (three games).

Overvalued, Undervalued Trade Targets - Buy/Sell for Fantasy Baseball (Week 2)

Making the right trades can be crucial to championship success in fantasy baseball, almost as much as the draft, if not more. While most trades can have a significant impact on your fantasy team, it’s the deals where you acquire undervalued players and then see their production improve that can really tip the scales in […]

Aaron Judge Goes Hitless Friday, Steals A Base

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge went 0-for-4 with a walk in Friday's 7-6 loss to Baltimore. The reigning MVP also struck out twice. Fortunately, he stole a base, his second of the year, to give fantasy managers a little something. Judge has gotten off to a slower start than most had expected, currently sitting […]

Carlos Rodon To Throw Live BP Monday

New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said that left-hander Carlos Rodon (forearm) will throw a live batting practice session on Monday. Rodon suffered a left forearm strain in spring training a month ago, and this will be the first time he's faced live hitters since. Barring any setbacks, the 30-year-old southpaw should be around a […]

Josh Donaldson Likely To Land On Injured List

New York Yankees third baseman Josh Donaldson (hamstring) is expected to be placed on the 10-day injured list, according to manager Aaron Boone. The 37-year-old was pulled from Wednesday's game due to right hamstring tightness. At first, the Yankees didn't believe it was serious, but it sounds like they've changed their mind. They don't want […]

Luis Severino Could Throw A Bullpen Sunday

New York Yankees starting pitcher Luis Severino (lat) said he could throw a bullpen session on Sunday. He was able to throw at 120 feet on Thursday and is getting closer to making his 2023 season debut for the Yankees. The 29-year-old right-hander suffered a low-grade lat strain in spring training after dealing with lat […]

Josh Donaldson Not In Friday's Lineup

New York Yankees third baseman Josh Donaldson (hamstring) is not in the starting lineup on Friday against the Baltimore Orioles. Donaldson tweaked his hamstring in Wednesday's game and will remain out of action on Friday despite having a day off on Thursday. The Yankees don't think his injury is serious, though, so the 37-year-old could […]

Oswald Peraza Performing Well In Triple-A

New York Yankees shortstop Oswald Peraza went 2-for-5 with a double, run and RBI for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. Peraza was the early camp favorite to walk away with the shortstop gig for the Yankees, but fellow prospect Anthony Volpe overtook him with a white-hot spring. Peraza has responded well to the demotion and is hitting .292 […]

Josh Donaldson's Injury Not Expected To Be Serious

New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said, "I don't think it's too severe" when asked about third baseman Josh Donaldson's (hamstring) injury. Donaldson was pulled from Wednesday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies with right hamstring tightness and could have an MRI exam on Thursday, but the injury doesn't appear to be very severe.

Clay Holmes Picks Up First Save Wednesday

New York Yankees closer Clay Holmes picked up his first save of the season on Wednesday in the 4-2 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies.

Josh Donaldson Dealing With Hamstring Tightness

Updating a previous report, New York Yankees third baseman Josh Donaldson (hamstring) left Wednesday's game early against the Philadelphia Phillies with right hamstring tightness. He will be re-evaluated on Thursday and should be considered day-to-day for now. The Yankees do not play on Thursday, so there's a chance that the 37-year-old veteran will return on […]

Josh Donaldson Departs Early Wednesday

New York Yankees third baseman Josh Donaldson left Wednesday's game early with what appeared to be a leg injury. Isiah Kiner-Falefa replaced him at third base. Donaldson is off to a slow start this season, going just 2-for-15 (.133) with one home run and one walk across 16 trips to the plate prior to Wednesday's […]
