Marcus Stroman to return to Yankees' rotation after missing 2 1/2 months with knee injury
NEW YORK (AP) — Marcus Stroman will be activated by the New York Yankees to start on Sunday after missing 2 1/2 months with left knee inflammation. Stroman threw a side session Friday and manager Aaron Boone made the announcement after the Yankees' beat the Athletics 3-0 in a series opener. 'We wanted to see him today, make sure he's in a good spot, good with his 'pen and everything,' Boone said. 'So just checking the boxes.' Stroman has not pitched for the Yankees since allowing five runs in two-thirds of an inning against the San Francisco Giants on April 11 when he threw 46 pitches in a steady rain. He was placed on the 15-day injured list the next day with what Boone hoped at the time would be a short-term absence. On May 9, Stroman experienced discomfort in his knee after throwing a batting practice session in Tampa, Florida. He did not begin a minor league rehabilitation assignment until June 11. In three rehab appearances with Double-A Somerset, Stroman was 0-1 with a 6.97 ERA. He made his final rehab start on Wednesday and allowed five runs, 10 hits and two walks over 3 2/3 innings against the Detroit Tigers' Erie Seawolves of the Eastern League. The Yankees placed No. 5 starter Ryan Yarbrough on the injured list Sunday with a strained right oblique and started Allan Winans on Monday in Cincinnati. Stroman turned 34 on May 1 and is in the second season of a two-year contract guaranteeing $37 million. The right-hander's deal includes a $16 million conditional player option for 2026 that could be exercised if he pitches in at least 140 innings this year. Last season, Stroman was 10-9 with a 4.31 ERA in 29 starts and one relief appearance over 154 2/3 innings, his most since 2021 with the Mets. Stroman struggled in the second half and did not pitch in the postseason, when the Yankees made their first World Series appearance since 2009. ___

Yankees Announce Plans for Marcus Stroman After Horrid Rehab Start
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. The New York Yankees signed Marcus Stroman to a two-year, $37 million deal last year. He has struggled as a Yankee, and his struggles have continued on his rehab assignment. Last year, Stroman had a 4.31 ERA in 30 games and did not pitch in the postseason. This year, he had an 11.57 ERA in three starts before landing on the injured list with a knee injury. In three rehab starts, he has a 6.97 ERA for the Yankees' Double-A affiliate. Stroman gave up 10 hits and five earned runs in 3 2/3 innings of work on Tuesday. Overall, he has allowed eight earned runs in three outings during his rehab assignment. With Ryan Yarbrough on the injured list, Gerrit Cole out and Luis Gil not slated to return until August, reportedly, the Yankees may have to live with Stroman getting a shot in the rotation.

NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 20: Marcus Stroman #0 of the New York Yankees reacts after pitching during the seventh inning against the Seattle Mariners at Yankee Stadium on May 20, 2024 in the Bronx borough of New York City. MoreThe team is building him up as a starter, but Stroman has noted he is open to coming out of the bullpen now, unlike he was in spring training, according to The Athletic's Brendan Kuty. Manager Aaron Boone spoke on the team's plans with Stroman after his latest poor outing. "Obviously got roughed up a little bit in the outing and the line wasn't great," Boone said per the New York Post's Greg Joyce. "But we'll dig into it some more and see what the best next move is." It seems like all the Yankees have been doing with Stroman is digging into how to fix the former All-Star. He is not long removed from his last All-Star season, 2023. Stroman will not hit the 140 innings mark required for his player option to be available for next season, so this could be his last run in pinstripes. It will be nearly impossible for the Yankees to trade him at this point with his struggles and contract. They will need to figure out how to at least get some value out of him, even if that means moving him to the bullpen. More MLB: Next Paul Skenes?

Yankees' Stroman allows 5 runs, 10 hits over 3 2/3 innings in minor league rehab start
New York Yankees pitcher Marcus Stroman allowed five runs, 10 hits and two walks over 3 2/3 innings during an injury rehabilitation start for the Double-A Somerset Patriots on Tuesday against the Detroit Tigers' Erie Seawolves in the Eastern League. Stroman threw 41 of 65 pitches for strikes in his third outing for Somerset and has a 6.97 ERA with nine strikeouts and five walks in 10 1/3 innings. A 34-year-old right-hander, Stroman has been sidelined by left knee inflammation. He last pitched for the Yankees on April 11 after starting the season 0-1 with an 11.57 ERA. He gave up RBI doubles to Jake Holton in the first and third. Stroman then allowed a two-run double later in the third to Chris Meyers, who scored on Justice Bigbie's single.
