Andres Chaparro

WSH First Baseman #87

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
Andrés Chaparro was scratched from Friday’s Grapefruit League lineup against Atlanta due to an injury to his left side.

The injury occurred during batting practice before Friday’s game. Juan Yepez is now starting at first base for Chaparro, and Stone Garrett moves into the DH position. The severity of Chaparro’s injury is unknown, and it’s possible he’ll undergo testing to determine how much time — if any, after Friday — he’ll need to miss.

Derek hill (back) is out of the lineup again Friday against Atlanta.

This makes three straight missed games for Hill, as he’s been able to get into the lineup due to tightness in his back. He’ll sit at least one more game with Dane Myers getting the start in center while Hill recovers.

Cody Bellinger

NYY Center Fielder #35

Cody Bellinger is not in the starting lineup for Friday’s game against the Pirates due a back issue.

Boone told reporters that Bellinger’s absence is precautionary, and doesn’t think it’s “anything big.” The 29-year-old could be available off the bench, but the Yankees will likely try and give him at least a day off. Trent Grisham gets the start in center in Bellinger’s absence. Consider him day-to-day, for now.

Gunnar Henderson

BAL Shortstop #2

Orioles reinstated INF Gunnar Henderson off the 10-day injured list.

As expected, Henderson is back for Friday’s game against the Royals. The 23-year-old has been out of action because of an intercostal (side) issue, but he’s ready to roll after completing a short rehab assignment. Henderson carries as much upside as any shortstop in baseball, and should be inserted into lineups as soon as possible.

Scott Effross

NYY Relief Pitcher #57

Scott Effross (hamstring) has stopped throwing after suffering a setback in rehab.

Effross is now in a “holding pattern” according to manager Aaron Boone. The 31-year-old has been riddled with injuries over the past few seasons, and it doesn’t sound like he’s going to help the Yankees in the near future.

Ian Hamilton

NYY Relief Pitcher #71

Ian Hamilton (illness) will rejoin the Yankees during their series against the Tigers.

Hamilton is currently on a rehab assignment with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. He’ll be an option in the mid-to-late innings for the Yankees upon his return.

Jake Cousins

NYY Relief Pitcher #61

Yankees manager Aaron Boone told reporters that Jake Cousins (elbow) is under a week from returning the mound.

That doesn’t mean Cousins is ready to pitch, but rather that he can begin throwing bullpens. The 30-year-old is on the 60-day injured list with a flexor strain in his right elbow, and won’t be eligible to join the Yankees’ bullpen until the end of May. Cousins will be a middle-inning option as soon as he’s well enough to be one.
