Yankees struggling with major player injuries for 2025
The New York Yankees are facing a tough start to the 2025 season due to injuries to key players. Pitcher Gerrit Cole will be out for the entire season because of Tommy John Surgery. Clarke Schmidt, another pitcher, is dealing with shoulder fatigue, but he does not think it is serious. Schmidt is hopeful about his recovery and feels good overall. Meanwhile, rookie Luis Gil has a high-grade strain in his right lat, which will also keep him sidelined for the season. These injuries could significantly affect the Yankees' pitching rotation as they head into the new season.
