Gerrit Cole Allows Three Runs in First Rehab Start
New York Yankees right-hander Gerrit Cole (elbow) made his first minor-league rehab start on Friday night with Double-A Somerset, and he allowed three earned runs on three hits (one homer) while walking one and striking out three in 4 1/3 innings of work. Cole missed all of the 2025 season after having right-elbow surgery last March. The Yankees aren't in any rush to bring the 35-year-old veteran back from Tommy John surgery, and they'll likely ease him back into the big-league rotation when he's eventually activated from the 15-day injured list. Barring a setback during his rehab assignment on the farm, Cole could be back in the Yankees' starting rotation in early May. The former first overall pick by the Pittsburgh Pirates in 2011 out of UCLA should be rostered in all fantasy leagues as fantasy managers hope the six-time All-Star can recapture the Cy Young form he had in 2023. Cole is currently rostered in 83% of Yahoo leagues.
