Yankees' Brent Headrick: Healthy for spring training
Yankees manager Aaron Boone indicated Wednesday that Headrick (forearm) is fully healthy for the start of spring training, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.
Headrick closed 2025 on the Yankees' injured list while recovering from a left forearm contusion, but he was able to make seven rehab appearances at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in September and appears to have had a normal offseason. The 28-year-old southpaw will be competing for a spot in the Opening Day bullpen and will likely work in middle relief if he breaks camp with the big club.

Yankees' Oswaldo Cabrera: No restrictions for camp
Yankees manager Aaron Boone indicated Wednesday that Cabrera (ankle) was fully healthy for the start of spring training, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.
Anthony Volpe (shoulder) was the only position player that Boone said would begin camp behind the others while recovering from an injury, so Cabrera will seemingly be operating without any restrictions this spring after fracturing his left ankle May 12 and undergoing season-ending surgery. Cabrera started 30 of the Yankees' first 41 games last year at third base, but with Ryan McMahon currently sitting atop the depth chart at the hot corner, Cabrera will likely be ticketed for a utility role.

Yankees' Ben Rice: Will still get regular reps vs. LHP
Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Wednesday that Rice will play regularly against lefties in addition to righties this season, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.
The Yankees re-signed Paul Goldschmidt last week, giving Rice a potential roadblock to everyday playing time at first base. However, while Goldschmidt will be given starts against lefty hurlers as a short-side platoon option, Rice is still expected to see plenty of action versus southpaws. Boone also noted that Rice could see a little playing time at catcher on days Goldschmidt starts at first base.

Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton: No restrictions in spring training
Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Wednesday that Stanton (elbows) has had a great offseason and will not have any restrictions at the start of spring training, Brendan Kuty of The Athletic reports.
Stanton's 2025 season debut was delayed until mid-June by tennis elbow in both arms. Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reported last week that the injuries haven't healed and Stanton will need to be monitored closely again in 2026. However, at least at the beginning of camp, Stanton appears to be good to go. The 36-year-old was superb when on the field last season, slashing .273/.350/.594 with 24 home runs across 77 regular-season contests.

Yankees' Gerrit Cole: Could pitch in spring games
Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Wednesday that Cole (elbow) could pitch in some Grapefruit League games before the end of camp, Greg Joyce of the New York Post reports.
Cole missed the entirety of the 2025 season following Tommy John with internal bracing surgery last March. He's been throwing since August and will progress to live batting practice session in a couple weeks, with game action a possibility later in March. However, while Cole's rehab has gone as well as could be expected, the Yankees don't expect him to rejoin their rotation until late May or early June.

Yankees' Dom Hamel: Sent outright to Triple-A
Hamel was sent outright to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Monday.
Hamel lost his spot on 40-man roster Wednesday but failed to draw any interest on the waiver wire. He struggled at Triple-A Syracuse a season ago, accruing a 5.32 ERA across 67.2 innings.

Yankees' Braden Shewmake: Sent outright to Triple-A
Shewmake was outrighted to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Monday.
Shewmake was booted from the 40-man roster Thursday after the Yankees claimed Osvaldo Bido off waivers. Shewmake appears destined to begin the 2026 campaign at Triple-A, where he hit .243 with four home runs, 29 RBI and 15 stolen bases in 85 games a year ago.

Yankees' Max Schuemann: Traded to Yankees
The Yankees acquired Schuemann from the Athletics in exchange for minor-league RHP Luis Burgos on Monday.
Schuemann was designated for assignment by the Athletics last week and will now head to New York to compete for a reserve infielder job this spring. Schuemann has slashed .212/.306/.297 with nine home runs, 47 RBI, 75 runs scored, 21 stolen bases and a 69:154 BB:K across 672 big-league plate appearances since making his MLB debut in 2024.

Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton: Tennis elbow will be monitored
Stanton's tennis elbow in both arms has not healed and will be managed again during the upcoming season, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
Stanton didn't make his season debut until mid-June last year because of the elbow issues, but he was very good when on the field, slashing .273/.350/.594 with 24 home runs across 77 regular-season contests. He does not seem to be in any danger of a late start to the season again, but the Yankees will keep close tabs on Stanton in camp and during the regular season. The 36-year-old will be the Yanks' primary designated hitter again in 2026.

Yankees' Yanquiel Fernandez: Designated for assignment
The Yankees designated Fernandez for assignment Monday, Francys Romero of BeisbolFR.com reports.
Fernandez was claimed off waivers from the Rockies earlier this month after he was DFA'd by Colorado in January. The 23-year-old outfielder slashed just .225/.265/.348 with a lofty strikeout rate across his first 147 big-league plate appearances last season.

Yankees' Anthony Volpe: Likely out until at least May
Volpe (shoulder) will begin the 2026 season on the injured list and is unlikely to be ready to play "at least until May," Randy Miller of NJ.com reports.
Volpe underwent left labrum surgery last October and is still in the recovery phase. This isn't a new timeline for him -- Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reported in early December that Volpe isn't likely to play in April -- but rather serves as a reminder for fantasy managers that the young shortstop is going to miss a substantial chunk of time early in the campaign. Jose Caballero seems to be the leading candidate to get the most starts at shortstop until Volpe is back in action.

Yankees' Ben Rice: Gets company at 1B in Goldschmidt
Rice is slated to be the Yankees' primary first baseman in 2026, but Paul Goldschmidt -- who the team re-signed Friday -- is expected to frequently start at the position against lefty pitchers, Randy Miller of NJ.com reports.
Yankees manager Aaron Boone said back in December that he expects Rice to play "a lot" against lefties this season, but New York's decision to bring back Goldschmidt -- who posted a standout .981 OPS against southpaws last year -- complicates matters. It doesn't necessarily mean that Rice will always sit against all left-handed starters; for those games, he could frequently move behind the plate to give fellow lefty hitter Austin Wells a break, and Rice may also be given turns at DH. With that in mind, fantasy managers need not downgrade Rice's outlook significantly, as Boone figures to get Rice's bat into the lineup on a near-everyday basis as long as he's hitting well. For those who roster Rice in dynasty and keeper leagues, the signing of Goldschmidt may end up being a good thing if it means Rice is able to maintain catcher eligibility beyond 2026.

Yankees' Paul Goldschmidt: Back in pinstripes
Goldschmidt signed a one-year contract with the Yankees on Friday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
Goldschmidt was underwhelming overall during his first season in the Bronx but excelled against southpaws, slashing .336/.411/.570 across 168 regular-season plate appearances against lefties in 2025. The Yankees likely plan to take advantage of his dominance versus left-handers and use the 38-year-old in the short side of a platoon with Ben Rice at first base.

Yankees' Jasson Dominguez: Could begin season in minors
Dominguez could begin the upcoming season in the minors, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
With Trent Grisham and Cody Bellinger re-signing, Dominguez is no longer projected for a regular spot in the Yankees' lineup. The team has not committed to where Dominguez will open the season, but he might be better off playing every day at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre rather than sitting on the big-league bench. Dominguez is one Giancarlo Stanton injury away from regular reps, so it's not difficult to envision a scenario in which he plays a lot, but his outlook for the time being is cloudy. The 23-year-old slashed .257/.331/.388 with 10 home runs and 23 stolen bases over 123 regular-season contests in 2025.

Yankees' George Lombard: Grabs invite to MLB camp
The Yankees have extended Lombard an invitation to big-league camp during spring training.
Fellow top prospects Carlos Lagrange and Ben Hess, among others, will also be on the major-league side of camp. Lombard was in big-league camp last year, too, but could stick around longer this time after spending most of the 2025 season at Double-A Somerset. The 20-year-old slashed .235/.367/.381 with nine home runs and 35 stolen bases over 132 contests between High-A Hudson Valley and Somerset last season.

Yankees' Osvaldo Bido: Claimed by Yankees
The Yankees claimed Bido off waivers from the Angels on Thursday.
The Yankees mark the sixth organization that Bido has joined this offseason while bouncing around via waivers. He turned in a 5.87 ERA over 79.2 innings with the Athletics in 2025 and doesn't have any minor-league options left, so he will need to open the season on New York's Opening Day roster to keep his spot on the 40-man roster.

Yankees' Braden Shewmake: Scrubbed from 40-man roster
The Yankees designated Shewmake for assignment Thursday.
The move frees a spot on the 40-man roster for waiver claim Osvaldo Bido. Shewmake spent all of the 2025 season at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, slashing .244/.318/.362 with four homers and 15 steals in 85 games. The 28-year-old infielder does not have minor-league options remaining, which will likely affect his appeal on waivers.

Yankees' Dom Hamel: Loses 40-man spot
The Yankees designated Hamel for assignment Wednesday.
Hamel will be exiting a 40-man roster for the fourth time in under five months; he had previously been DFA'd by the Mets and Orioles in September and the Rangers in January. The Yankees will drop Hamel from the roster in order to clear room for outfielder Yanquiel Fernandez, who was claimed off waivers from the Rockies. The 26-year-old Hamel made his MLB debut last season in a Sept. 17 relief appearance with the Mets but otherwise spent the entire campaign at Triple-A Syracuse, where he turned in a 5.32 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 75:22 K:BB in 67.2 innings.

Yankees' Yanquiel Fernandez: Catches on with Yankees
The Yankees claimed Fernandez off waivers from the Rockies on Wednesday.
After the Rockies designated him for assignment last week, Rodriguez was quickly able to find his way to a new organization. Rodriguez reached the majors for the first time in 2025 and slashed just .225/.265/.348 with a 29.9 percent strikeout rate over 147 plate appearances, but he's just 23 years old and brings plus raw power from the left side of the plate. Barring multiple injuries to other outfielders coming out of spring training, the Yankees likely won't have room for Rodriguez on their Opening Day roster, but his power upside makes him an intriguing flier for New York at the back end of the 40-man roster.
