Taillon (ankle) will start Monday's spring training game against the Phillies, Lindsey Adler of The Athletic reports.
Manager Aaron Boone said last week Taillon was on track to be ready by Opening Day, and the right-hander will make his first start of spring training Monday. The 30-year-old underwent ankle surgery in October and had no apparent issues with his rehab and recovery, which should allow him to take a spot in the Yankees' starting rotation to open 2022.
