Rotowire

Baker pushed his scoreless streak up to 23.2 innings Saturday. The 31-year-old right-hander last blew a save during his May 17 outing against the Mets, successfully converting each of his last 10 save opportunities. Through 44.2 innings on the year, Bednar sports a 2.42 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 49:14 K:BB with 20 saves in 22 attempts.

Yankees' Ryan Weathers: Fans seven in fourth win
Rotowire
Weathers (4-7) earned the win Saturday against Philadelphia, allowing one run on six hits and one walk in 5.2 innings. He struck out seven.
Weathers held an imposing Phillies lineup in check Saturday, keeping the ball in the park while inducing six groundouts on the evening. The left-hander is still searching for some consistency -- he's given up at least four runs in half of his last 12 outings while yielding two runs or fewer in the other half. Weathers will take a 4.25 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 122:30 K:BB over 108 innings into his next scheduled appearance against the White Sox.

Yankees' Cody Bellinger: Dealing with hamstring injury
Rotowire
Manager Aaron Boone said Bellinger suffered a left hamstring injury in Saturday's win over the Phillies, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.
Bellinger will undergo further testing after he was injured legging out a double in the top of the eighth inning Saturday. At the time of his departure, Bellinger was 2-for-4 with the double and one RBI. He's currently on a six-game hitting streak and has recorded at least one base knock in 11 of his past 12 contests. Bellinger has a .770 OPS with 11 homers and 53 RBI on the season.
Yankees' Cody Bellinger: Exits game early Saturday
Rotowire
Bellinger left Saturday's game early against the Phillies, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.
After running out a double in the eighth, Bellinger appeared to hurt himself and was removed from the game in the bottom of the inning. Max Schuemann replaced Bellinger in left field.
Bednar earned the save in the Yankees' 1-0 win over the Phillies on Friday, when he struck out one batter in a scoreless ninth inning.
Bednar needed just nine pitches (six strikes) to close out Friday's game for the Yankees, with five of those pitches coming against Bryce Harper, whom he struck out swinging. Bednar has converted 19 of 21 save opportunities this season and has not allowed an earned run since May 18 against the Blue Jays. He has a 2.47 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 49:14 K:BB across 43.2 innings in 2026.

Yankees' Cam Schlittler: Fans 12 in dazzling win
Rotowire
Schlittler (10-6) earned the win against the Phillies on Friday, allowing three hits while striking out 12 across 7.1 scoreless innings. He did not issue a walk.
The Yankees supplied just one run on a Paul Goldschmidt solo home run, but that's all the help Schlittler needed to secure his 10th win of the season. The 25-year-old right-hander set the tone early by striking out six of the first nine batters he faced and ended his night with 16 whiffs and 68 strikes on 99 pitches. Schlittler was one strikeout shy from matching his season high of 13 against the Reds on June 19, and among qualified starters in the majors, he ranks second in ERA (2.07) and third in WHIP (0.93) as well as second in strikeouts (157) across 130.1 innings. His next start is lined up for next week on the road against the White Sox.

Yankees' Clarke Schmidt: Tossing another live BP
Rotowire
Schmidt (elbow) is scheduled to pitch a live bullpen session Sunday, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.
Schmidt continues to progress in his recovery from an internal brace procedure that he underwent on his right elbow in July of 2025. The Yankees should have a better sense of Schmidt's recovery timeline once he's cleared to embark on a rehab assignment, but Schmidt is on track to be back with the big club in mid-August, though it's unclear whether he'll be used as a reliever or starter upon his return.

Yankees' Carlos Rodon: Throwing sim session Saturday
Rotowire
Rodon (elbow) is expected to throw a two-up side session Saturday, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.
If all goes well Saturday, then Rodon could be cleared to throw a live bullpen session next week. The veteran southpaw was placed on the 15-day injured list in early July due to left elbow inflammation but has made significant progress since receiving a second round of injections last week. Barring any setbacks, Rodon could be back in the Yankees' rotation by mid-August.

Yankees' Luis Gil: Facing hitters
Rotowire
Gil (shoulder) threw a live batting practice session Friday, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.
It appears to be the first time Gil has faced hitters since he was placed on the 7-day injured list at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in early May with right shoulder inflammation. A return to game action seems imminent, but it's unlikely Gil will be an option for the Yankees anytime soon.

Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Day off Friday
Rotowire
Chisholm is not in the lineup for Friday's matchup against the Phillies.
Chisholm will take his first rest day since the All-Star break for Friday's series opener. Jose Caballero will play second base and bat eighth for the Yankees.
Yankees' Cam Schlittler: Next start bumped to Friday
Rotowire
Schlittler is now slated to start Friday in Philadelphia, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.
Will Warren was originally scheduled to make the start Friday, but he was deployed for two-thirds of an inning out of the bullpen in the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader versus Pittsburgh. Consequently, Schlittler -- who had previously been penciled in to start Sunday -- is moving up a couple of days, though he'll still be operating on a normal four days of rest. Schlittler will be looking for better results than in his first start of the second half, when he gave up three runs over 4.1 innings in a loss to the Dodgers.

Yankees' Will Warren: Appears out of bullpen Wednesday
Rotowire
Warren earned a hold in the second game of a doubleheader against Pittsburgh on Wednesday, allowing one hit and issuing one walk while striking out one batter over two-thirds of an inning.
Warren had been scheduled to start Tuesday, but that game was rained out. Max Fried returned from a lengthy absence to start the second game of Wednesday's twin bill while Gerrit Cole started the matinee, leaving Warren to make his first relief appearance of the season. The right-hander had been penciled in as New York's starter Friday for the opening game of a series in Philadelphia, but the Yankees have since shifted him to Sunday, with Cam Schlittler now scheduled to take the mound Friday and Ryan Weathers following Saturday, per Chris Kirschner of The Athletic.
