The Yankees placed Schmidt (shoulder) on the 15-day injured list Wednesday.

Schmidt has been battling rotator cuff tendinitis since mid-March, but he's felt much better during his recent sessions of live batting practice. He'll take advantage of his time on the IL to build up to a starter's workload and should be able to return close to when he's first eligible April 8.
