Gerrit Cole Throwing a Bullpen Session on Wednesday
New York Yankees right-hander Gerrit Cole (elbow) will throw a bullpen session on Wednesday, but it's still to be determined what his next rehab outing will look like, according to Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News. Cole will likely either pitch in a game at Double-A Somerset on Friday or throw a live batting practice session. The 35-year-old veteran and former Cy Young winner threw 42 pitches in three simulated innings against High-A Hudson Valley hitters on Sunday, so he might be ready for an official rehab start if his bullpen session goes well on Wednesday. Cole made two starts in spring training and is getting closer to his 2026 season debut after having Tommy John surgery on his right elbow and missing all of the 2025 season. With that said, Cole will likely require at least three or four rehab starts before the Yankees clear him to join the big-league bullpen, which means we might see Cole back in Yankees pinstripes until late May or even early June. Cole isn't getting any younger, but he still has plenty of upside left in his right arm. He's rostered in 83% of Yahoo leagues right now.
