Try it free The oft-injured Scott Effross is no longer technically rehabbing, but his status has not truly changed as the righty will continue to pitch in the minor leagues and attempt to work his way up to The Bronx. Effross' rehab clock ran out Sunday, when he was returned from his rehab assignment and reinstated from the 15-day injured list but optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. Advertisement The Yankees want to see more from Effross, who had pitched 3 ¹/₃ scoreless innings in three games in the Florida Coast League and with Double-A Somerset before allowing two runs on four hits with Somerset on Saturday. Scott Effross has finished his rehab from a spring hamstring injury, but is staying in Triple-A to work his way back into form. Charles Wenzelberg / New York Post 'Really, it's about him pitching and stacking days and weeks to where you start to get that polish again,' manager Aaron Boone said before finishing the Subway Series in The Bronx. 'Hopefully, he can do that and put himself in a position to be in the mix.' Advertisement Effross' injuries have been numerous and cruel. The Yankees dealt for the righty at the 2022 deadline, and he impressed (2.13 ERA in 13 games) before requiring Tommy John surgery. While rehabbing the elbow, he underwent back surgery in December 2023. CHECK OUT THE LATEST MLB STANDINGS AND YANKEES STATS He made it back to the majors last September, but for only three games. His stuff was particularly encouraging this spring, but he strained his hamstring during his first game in the Grapefruit League. Advertisement He suffered a setback with the hamstring in early April, but it is now his stuff and crispness that need to return rather than his health. Scott Effross returned from 2022 Tommy John surgery to pitch in three games at the end of 2024. Robert Sabo for NY Post The Yankees, who boosted their bullpen this weekend by activating Jonathan Loáisiga, have a strong group that perhaps Effross, who owns a great sweeper, can join with a better minor league showing.

Yankees add RHP Yerry de los Santos, DFA RHP Carlos Carrasco
May 6 - The New York Yankees recalled right-hander Yerry de los Santos from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday, while right-hander Carlos Carrasco was designated for assignment. Infielder DJ LeMahieu, who has not played a major league game this season because of a left calf strain, had his rehab assignment shifted from Double-A Somerset to Triple-A. Right-hander Scott Effross is set to begin a rehab assignment in the Florida Complex League. Carrasco, 38, was 2-2 with a 5.91 ERA in eight appearances (six starts) for the Yankees this season. A veteran of 16 major league seasons, Carrasco is 112-105 with a 4.18 ERA in 332 appearances (283 starts). In one appearance with the Yankees earlier this season, de los Santos went two scoreless innings. He was 1-1 with a 1.74 ERA in 10 relief appearances at Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. LeMahieu, who was injured in spring training, is close to starting his seventh season with the Yankees. He also played seven seasons with the Colorado Rockies and is a lifetime .289 hitter with 124 home runs and 651 RBIs. He is a three-time All-Star and four-time Gold Glove Award winner. Effross, 31, was placed on the IL before the start of the season with a hamstring strain. In 77 appearances (one start) over three seasons with the Chicago Cubs (2021-22) and Yankees (2022, 2024), he is 3-5 with a 2.89 ERA.
