Gerrit Cole's rehab progress

Cole gave up three runs in 4.1 innings during his Double-A debut, a performance that provided both optimism and areas for improvement.

The veteran right-hander is recovering from an elbow injury that has kept him sidelined for the early part of the 2026 season.

Boone emphasized the importance of building up Cole's pitch count and ensuring he feels healthy before rejoining the Yankees' rotation.

Fans are eagerly awaiting his return as the team looks to maintain its competitive position in the AL East.
