  • 74-26-10 1st Place
    • Sidelined for eight weeks
      The Yankees placed Rizzo on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with a right forearm fracture.

      Advice: Per Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News, Rizzo will be shut down from all activities for 4-to-5 weeks and it will be eight weeks until he's ready to play in games. Ben Rice is up to take his roster spot and is starting at first base Tuesday against the Orioles in his major-league debut. The Yankees also figure to use DJ LeMahieu at first base and Oswaldo Cabrera at third base some days while Rizzo is shelved. Rotowire.com 3 minutes ago
       
    • Called up to majors
      The Yankees recalled Andrews from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday.

      Advice: Andrews and Anthony Misiewicz will reinforce the Yankees' bullpen after Cody Poteet (triceps) and Ian Hamilton (lat) were placed on the injured list. Andrews has struggled at Triple-A this season, owning a 5.84 ERA and a 28:22 K:BB across 24 appearances and surrendered a home run in his only MLB appearance of 2024.

    • Brenton Doyle back in lineup Tuesday vs. Dodgers
      Brenton Doyle (knee) is in the lineup for Tuesday’s game against the Dodgers.

      Advice: Doyle is back in center field for the second consecutive contest after sitting out a pair of contests over the weekend due to left knee tendinitis. It doesn’t sound like a serious concern moving forward for fantasy managers to worry about. Rotoworld 10 minutes ago
       
    • Resuming rehab Friday
      Cavalli is expected to throw three innings at High-A Wilmington on Friday, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

      Advice: Cavalli's three-week rehab pause was attributed to rest rather than a setback in his Tommy John recovery. Still, Cavalli will pitch in-game for the first time since May 30 on Friday, returning to Wilmington to continue his assignment. It's likely he won't be ready for reinstatement until closer to the All-Star break. Rotowire.com 12 minutes ago
       
    • Starting rehab assignment
      Brubaker (elbow) will begin a rehab assignment with Single-A Tampa on Wednesday, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.

      Advice: The 30-year-old is finally ready for game action after a long rehab from Tommy John surgery. Brubaker will be an option for the Yankees' rotation sometime after the All-Star break, but it seems likely that he'll be optioned to the minors initially once he's off the 60-day injured list.

    • Idle Tuesday
      Santana is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rays.

      Advice: Santana will get the day off Tuesday after making five consecutive starts at first base. Jose Miranda will fill in for Santana at first and bat sixth. Rotowire.com 19 minutes ago
       
    • Yankees recall Clayton Andrews on Tuesday
      Yankees recalled LHP Clayton Andrews from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

      Advice: Andrews provides New York’s bullpen with some extra fortification heading into Tuesday’s showdown against the division-rival Orioles. The 27-year-old lefty has made only one relief appearance this season in the big leagues. Rotoworld 19 minutes ago
       
    • Cleared for rehab assignment
      Effross (back) will begin a rehab assignment with Single-A Tampa on Wednesday, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.

      Advice: Effross hasn't pitched since 2022 due to Tommy John and back surgeries. He'll need time to knock the rust off but could be a weapon in the second half for the Yankees if he can regain his pre-surgery sharpness. Effross posted a 2.78 ERA and 80:16 K:BB over 71.1 innings from 2021-22 with the Cubs and Yankees. Rotowire.com 19 minutes ago
       
    • Yankees put Cody Poteet on IL with triceps strain
      Yankees placed RHP Cody Poteet on the 15-day injured list with a right triceps strain.

      Advice: No word yet on how long Poteet will be sidelined as he’s pitched extremely well in a handful of starts with a pristine 2.14 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 13/7 K/BB ratio across 21 innings (four starts). It’ll be Gerrit Cole taking his spot later this week in New York’s starting rotation. Any extended absence would be a hit to the Yankees’ pitching depth. Rotoworld 21 minutes ago
