Gerrit Cole, the New York Yankees pitcher, threw 43 pitches in a simulated game at the Tampa complex on Thursday. Cole expressed feeling good post-session and mentioned the possibility of starting a rehab assignment soon, depending on his recovery. Meanwhile, Clarke Schmidt, another Yankees pitcher, will be out for 4-6 weeks due to an injury, having had an MRI yesterday, with Cody Poteet set to start on Saturday.
Gerrit Cole could start a rehab assignment next week, per @ChrisKirschner https://t.co/kvkZnjvNgB
Clarke Schmidt will not throw for 4-6 weeks, Aaron Boone said. “It’s going to be a while.” He had an MRI yesterday and saw Dr. Neal ElAttrache today in Los Angeles. Cody Poteet will start on Saturday.
