  • Yankees' Luis Gil: Stellar in return

    Gil (13-6) earned the win Friday over the Cubs, allowing one hit and two walks over six scoreless innings. He struck out seven.

    After missing two weeks with lower-back discomfort, Gil was excellent in his return. It's an encouraging effort from the 26-year-old, who had allowed seven runs over seven innings in two starts prior to his IL stint. He had also issued 16 walks in his previous 17.1 frames. Overall, Gil sports a 3.24 ERA across 130.2 innings this season with a 1.16 WHIP and 151:68 K:BB. He currently lines up for a home matchup with the Royals in his next outing.

  • Yankees' Luis Gil: Activated ahead of Friday's start

    The Yankees activated Gil (back) from the 15-day injured list Thursday, Jorge Castillo of ESPN.com reports.

    Gil will rejoin the rotation Friday with a start against the Cubs after missing the last two weeks with lower-back discomfort. He went just 3.2 innings but threw 80 pitches in his lone rehab start, so Gil is mostly stretched out. The Yankees could look to shift Gil to relief later in September and perhaps even use him as their closer, but for now, the right-hander will be part of what appears to be a six-man rotation.

  • Yankees' Luis Gil: Returning to rotation Friday

    Gil (back) is scheduled to be reinstated from the 15-day injured list to start Friday against the Cubs, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.

    Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Sunday that the right-hander was likely to return from the injured list this weekend, and Gil is now penciled in for Friday's series opener in Chicago. The 26-year-old threw 80 pitches across 3.2 frames in his lone rehab outing, so he shouldn't have any significant workload limitations in his first start back with New York. With Clarke Schmidt (lat) making his return from the 60-day IL on Saturday, it appears the Yankees will employ a six-man rotation for the near future.

  • Yankees' Luis Gil: Poised to return this weekend

    Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Sunday that there's a "very good chance" Gil (back) will return from the 15-day injured list and rejoin the rotation this weekend against the Cubs, Max Goodman of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.

    Gil made what's expected to be his lone rehab start with Double-A Somerset on Sunday, getting charged with three runs while striking out six over 3.2 frames. He threw 80 pitches in the outing, so the righty should be sufficiently stretched out for a typical workload versus the Cubs. Clarke Schmidt (lat) is also expected to return from the 60-day IL to make a start this weekend, so the Yankees appear poised to operate with a six-man setup for now. Eventually, one or both pitchers could be shifted to the bullpen ahead of the postseason.

  • Yankees' Luis Gil: Beginning rehab stint Sunday

    Gil (back) will make a minor-league rehab start Sunday, MLB.com reports.

    Gil exited his Aug. 20 start against Cleveland after three-plus innings due to lower-back discomfort, and he subsequently landed on the 15-day injured list. The right-hander has since been able to toss a live batting practice session of around 65 pitches, and he may not require more than one rehab appearance before rejoining the Yankees rotation. Gil is eligible to return from the IL on Sept. 6, which would be five days after Sunday's rehab start.

  • Yankees' Luis Gil: Rehab start early next week

    Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Wednesday that Gil (back) will likely make a rehab start in five days, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.

    Gil got through a live batting practice session Tuesday with no issues and should be in line for a rehab start Monday or Tuesday. Given that he's been on the shelf for a brief period of time with a lower-back strain, Gil shouldn't need more than one rehab start before being activated from the 15-day injured list, potentially as soon as next weekend. The New York rotation is fluid right now with Clarke Schmidt (lat) also nearing a return and likely to beat Gil back from the IL. The plan is for both Gil and Schmidt to return as starters, but one or both of them could eventually shift to relief later on in September.

  • Yankees' Luis Gil: Faces hitters

    Gil (back) threw live batting practice with Double-A Somerset on Tuesday, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.

    After Gil threw a bullpen session Sunday, manager Aaron Boone indicated that Gil would either throw live BP or begin a rehab assignment next. While Gil is with the Yankees' Double-A affiliate, he hasn't yet began to pitch in games. There's optimism that the 26-year-old could be ready to be activated once he becomes eligible Sept. 6, so a rehab start could be the next step for Gil.

  • Yankees' Luis Gil: Throws bullpen session

    Gil (back) threw a bullpen session Sunday, Greg Joyce of the New York Post reports.

    Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Monday that the team is still determining whether Gil's next time on the mound will be a live batting practice session or a rehab start. The right-hander will be eligible for activation from the 15-day injured list on Sept. 6 and Boone added that it's possible Gil is ready by that date. The hurler is recovering from a lower-back strain.

  • Yankees' Luis Gil: Back injury believed to be minor

    Manager Aaron Boone said Wednesday that Gil's lower-back strain is considered minor, and the Yankees are hopeful that he can return from the 15-day injured list when first eligible Sept. 5, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

    Gil tweaked his back during his start Tuesday against the Guardians and landed on the IL a day later. Boone is optimistic that Gil will be able to continue throwing throughout his stint on the IL, which would improve the right-hander's odds of making it back in the minimum 15 days. Boone added that he foresees Gil returning as a member of the rotation rather than the bullpen.

  • Yankees' Luis Gil: Sent to IL with back strain

    The Yankees placed Gil on the 15-day injured list Wednesday with a lower-back strain.

    Gil missed most of the past two seasons while recovering from Tommy John surgery, but he had enjoyed good health thus far in 2024 until he was lifted from his start Tuesday against the Guardians due to the back issue. Will Warren was recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes Barre in a corresponding move and could step in as the Yankees' new No. 5 starter in place of Gil, who may be a drop candidate in redraft leagues since he won't be eligible to return from the IL until Sept. 5. The Yankees and fantasy managers alike have already gotten far more than they likely expected from Gil, who had generated a 3.30 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 144 strikeouts over 124.2 innings through his first 24 starts of the season.

  • Yankees' Luis Gil: Exits with trainer

    Gil was removed from Tuesday's game against the Guardians due to back tightness.

    The 26-year-old righty needed 78 pitches to get through three-plus innings before leaving the game, during which he gave up three runs on three hits and six walks while striking out three batters. He'll presumably undergo imaging to determine the severity of his injury, and his status for his next start -- tentatively scheduled to come against the Rockies over the weekend -- is uncertain.
