Jose Caballero Expected to Return on Friday
New York Yankees infielder Jose Caballero (finger) is scheduled to come off the 10-day injured list on Friday for the start of a big series against the division-rival Tampa Bay Rays, according to Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News. Caballero has healed quickly from a fractured right middle finger and should take over the primary duties at shortstop in the Bronx from Anthony Volpe. The speedy 29-year-old didn't go on a minor-league rehab assignment, so he might have to knock off some rust at the plate upon his return. The native of Panama doesn't offer fantasy managers much power at all -- he's never had more than nine home runs in a single season in his three full years in the big leagues -- but his elite speed on the basepaths makes him worth rostering in most leagues. Caballero has two 40-plus-steal campaigns and is currently slashing .259/.320/.400 with a .720 OPS, four homers, 13 RBI, 13 steals, and 18 runs scored in his first 41 contests in 2026 in his first full year with the Yanks. He's rostered in 72% of Yahoo leagues, so he's worth a pickup if you need speed.
