Jake Cousins Throwing At 90 Feet

New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said on Monday that right-handed reliever Jake Cousins (forearm) is throwing out to 90 feet at camp.

New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said that infielder DJ LeMahieu (calf) is "moving the needle" in his recovery from a left-calf strain and has been hitting in camp.

Giancarlo Stanton Doing More

New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said that outfielder/designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton (calf, elbows) is doing more in camp, but the skipper didn't exactly specify what that entails.

Clarke Schmidt Won't Start On Monday

New York Yankees starting pitcher Clarke Schmidt (shoulder) won't make his scheduled spring training start on Monday.
