Clarke Schmidt, recovering from a lat strain, has completed two successful rehab starts and is hopeful to return to the Yankees roster soon, potentially as early as Monday. Yankees manager Aaron Boone has suggested that Schmidt might not need another rehab start, despite earlier expectations for him to make two more. In his recent outing, Schmidt pitched 3 innings, allowing 1 run and striking out 5 batters, accumulating a strong overall performance with an 11:2 K:BB ratio in 6.2 innings across his rehab starts. The Yankees are also considering calling up Jasson Dominguez as rosters expand, and they plan to make several bullpen adjustments. Meanwhile, Scott Effross is progressing well in Triple-A and could contribute to the bullpen later this season. The team's strategy will depend on their performance in the upcoming series against the Cardinals.
