Yankees' Ryan Weathers: Fans seven in Yankees debut
Rotowire
Weathers did not factor into the decision Monday against the Mariners, allowing one run on four hits and two walks while striking out seven over 4.1 innings.
Making his Yankees debut after being traded from Miami this offseason, Weathers was sharp for much of the outing, giving up his only run in the second inning on an RBI single from Cole Young before settling in and retiring seven straight batters, including four via strikeout during a dominant stretch. Weathers ran into trouble in the fifth with back-to-back singles that effectively ended his night as he threw 77 pitches (49 strikes) in the effort, flashing strong swing-and-miss ability throughout. Coming off a 2025 season in which the southpaw logged just 38.1 innings with a 3.99 ERA, this start was an encouraging step forward for the 26-year-old.

Yankees' Ryan Weathers: Ends spring on positive note
Rotowire
Weathers completed five innings in Tuesday's exhibition game against the Cubs, allowing one run on four hits and one walk while striking out four batters.
Weathers entered as a reliever in the third inning but got in a healthy workload of five frames spanning 80 pitches (57 strikes). He held Chicago to just one run on a Miguel Amaya solo homer. Weathers had a bumpy spring and finished the exhibition slate with an 8.83 ERA and 1.79 WHIP across 17.1 innings, but he did register an impressive 21:4 K:BB. The left-hander has been tabbed to be part of New York's season-opening rotation and is tentatively slated to make his first start Monday in Seattle.

Yankees' Ryan Weathers: Traded to Yankees
Rotowire
The Marlins traded Weathers to the Yankees on Tuesday in exchange for minor-leaguers Dillon Lewis, Brendan Jones, Dylan Jasso and Juan Matheus, Jack Curry of YES Network reports.
Weathers finished the 2025 season with a 3.99 ERA and 1.28 WHIP but was limited to just eight starts due to forearm and lat strains. Now fully recovered from both injuries, the 26-year-old will help bolster a Yankees rotation that is expected to begin the regular season without Gerrit Cole (elbow) and Carlos Rodon (elbow).

Marlins' Ryan Weathers: Agrees to deal with Miami
Rotowire
Weathers agreed to a one-year contract worth $1.35 million with the Marlins on Thursday to avoid arbitration, Isaac Azout of FishOnFirst.com reports.
Weathers opened the 2025 campaign on the Marlins' injured list due to a forearm strain, but after debuting in mid-May he wound up back on the IL with a lat strain after just five starts. The 26-year-old southpaw was cleared to return in September, and over his last three outings of the season he posted a 1-1 record with a 5.27 ERA, 1.68 WHIP and 14:4 K:BB across 13.2 innings. Weathers has started in only 39 major-league games over the last three seasons, but if he remains healthy, he should serve in a prominent role in the Marlins' rotation in 2026.

Marlins' Ryan Weathers: Routed by Philly
Rotowire
Weathers (2-2) took the loss Wednesday, coughing up five runs on six hits -- including three home runs -- and two walks over 4.2 innings as the Marlins were thumped 11-1 by the Phillies. He struck out eight.
The eight Ks were a season high for the southpaw, but so were the three long balls as Kyle Schwarber, Edmundo Sosa and Bryson Stott all took him deep on a night when Philly launched eight homers in total. Weathers made only eight starts in 2025 due to injuries, and he'll head into the winter with a 3.99 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 37:12 K:BB through 38.1 innings.

Marlins' Ryan Weathers: Labors through four frames
Rotowire
Weathers allowed three runs on eight hits and two walks while striking out two batters over four innings in a no-decision against Colorado on Wednesday.
Weathers yielded a constant stream of traffic, failing to record a clean inning and allowing multiple baserunners in all but one of the frames in which he pitched. That caused him to rack up a high pitch count of 80 pitches through four frames, and he consequently didn't return for the fifth inning. Weathers shined with five scoreless frames in his return from a lengthy IL stint in his previous start, so fantasy managers may not want to hold this shaky outing against him too much given that it was in the altitude of Colorado. However, Weathers is lined up for a tough matchup in Philadelphia next week, so he doesn't make for a great SP option for those in the midst of fantasy playoffs.

Marlins' Ryan Weathers: Making rehab start Saturday
Rotowire
Weathers (lat) is expected to make a three-inning rehab start Saturday, Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com reports.
If all goes well Saturday, Weathers is expected to make another start in the minors after that before returning from the 60-day injured list and slotting back into the Miami rotation before the middle of September. Weathers has been on the shelf since early June due to a strained left lat. The southpaw has been limited to just five starts for the Marlins this season but has collected a 3.28 ERA and 23:8 K:BB across 24.2 innings.

Marlins' Ryan Weathers: Experiencing shoulder discomfort
Rotowire
Weathers returned to Miami on Monday and will be evaluated due to shoulder discomfort, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
Weathers was removed from Saturday's start against the Rays after being hit in the head by a throw from catcher Nick Fortes between innings. Prior to that, however, Weathers was seen flexing his arm and experienced diminished velocity, so the shoulder discomfort makes sense now. The left-hander has made just five starts this season after missing the start of 2025 with a forearm issue. Weathers is 1-1 with a 3.28 ERA and 23:8 K:BB across 24.2 innings of work. A trip to the 15-day injured list could be in his near future.

Marlins' Ryan Weathers: Mixed results in loss
Rotowire
Weathers (1-1) took the loss against the Giants on Sunday, allowing four runs on five hits and three walks with seven strikeouts over six innings.
Weathers generated an impressive 17 whiffs on 99 pitches and was largely undone by a three-run homer in the fourth inning. It marked the first time the southpaw completed six innings since returning from the injured list May 14, though he had allowed just two earned runs over his previous three starts. He'll carry a 2.49 ERA, 1.02 WHIP and 22:7 K:BB across 21.2 innings into a road matchup with the Rays next weekend.

Marlins' Ryan Weathers: No-decision against former team
Rotowire
Weathers allowed two unearned runs on three hits and three walks while striking out six over 5.2 innings in a no-decision versus the Padres on Monday.
Weathers continued his strong start to the campaign Monday, coming up one out short of a quality start against his former team. This was the first time he's been tagged for multiple runs across three starts, as a two-out error by Connor Norby allowed the Padres to extend a rally in the fourth inning. Weathers threw 94 pitches (53 strikes) in this outing, displaying a bit of shaky control, but he looks fully stretched out at this point after opening the year on the injured list due to a forearm strain. Weathers has a 1.15 ERA, 0.89 WHIP and 15:4 K:BB across 15.2 innings. He's projected to make his next start at home versus the Giants over the weekend.

Marlins' Ryan Weathers: Goes five strong in 2025 debut
Rotowire
Weathers (1-0) picked up the win Wednesday against the Cubs, allowing one run on two hits and one walk with five strikeouts across five innings.
Miami activated Weathers off the injured list for Wednesday's start after a forearm injury kept the 25-year-old sidelined since the beginning of the season. While he threw only 76 pitches -- an expected outcome after maxing out at 57 pitches during his rehab assignment -- Weathers worked with efficiency versus a potent Cubs offense. His lone blemish came in the fourth inning when Seiya Suzuki lifted a solo homer. His next start is scheduled for next week in a rematch with the Cubs.

Marlins' Ryan Weathers: Will start Wednesday for Miami
Rotowire
Weathers (forearm) is expected to start Wednesday's game against the Cubs, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
It will be Weathers' 2025 debut after he suffered a strained forearm during spring training. He's made three rehab starts while on the 15-day injured list, registering a 1.69 ERA and 13:4 K:BB across 10.2 innings. Weathers threw just 57 pitches in his latest rehab start, so it's likely he won't be fully stretched out Wednesday.

Marlins' Ryan Weathers: Stellar in first rehab outing
Rotowire
Weathers (forearm) struck out six over three perfect innings in his first rehab start with Single-A Jupiter on Sunday.
Weathers didn't face the stiffest competition, but he couldn't have delivered better results in his first outing since going down with a left flexor strain late in spring training. The southpaw will likely need at least one more rehab start before returning from the 15-day injured list and rejoining the Miami rotation.

Marlins' Ryan Weathers: Starting up throwing progression
Rotowire
Weathers (forearm) is expected to begin a throwing progression later this week, Kevin Barral of FishonFirst.com reports.
Weathers opened the season on the 15-day injured list after suffering a left flexor strain late in spring training. The southpaw appears to have responded well to a brief shutdown period, but he'll likely face an extended ramp-up period as he looks to get stretched back out for a starting role. If all goes well during that process, Weathers could be ready to return from the IL by late April, in a best-case scenario.

Marlins' Ryan Weathers: Earns win Tuesday
Rotowire
Weathers (4-6) allowed a run on six hits and two walks while striking out two over five innings to earn the win over the Twins on Tuesday.
Weathers did better in his second start back from a finger injury. The Marlins gave him a four-run lead in the second inning, and he only gave one run back on Royce Lewis' RBI single in the third. Weathers has generally pitched well this year, allowing two runs or fewer in seven of his 15 starts. He's at a 3.81 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 74:22 K:BB across 80.1 innings. Weathers is tentatively projected to make one more start at Toronto this weekend.

Weathers looks set to increase the volume of his throwing after he tossed two innings and 35 pitches in his first live BP session Friday.

Marlins' Ryan Weathers: Nearing mound work
Rotowire
Weathers (finger) completed a flat-ground throwing session Monday and is hopeful to resume throwing bullpen sessions in two weeks, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
Weathers was placed on the injured list June 8 with a left index finger strain and has had a slow recovery thus far. Though his workout Monday is a step in the right direction, Weathers isn't on pace to face hitters until late August in a best-case scenario, and he'll require multiple rehab starts after that before a return from the 60-day IL becomes a possibility. The southpaw might not have enough time to get fully stretched out for a starting role during his rehab assignment, so if he comes off the IL in September, he might have to work out of the bullpen.
