The New York Yankees say right-handers Clarke Schmidt and Ryan Weathers are nearing a return from the injured list. Coverage from multiple outlets indicates both players are close to rejoining the team and are expected to help the Yankees in the bullpen.
The reports describe their progress generally, without detailing specific dates in the provided accounts. Both Schmidt and Weathers are discussed in the same context: as pitchers moving from IL status back toward availability to support New York’s pitching needs. While the outlets use similar language, they focus on different phrasing rather than contrasting facts, reflecting a shared assessment that both pitchers are approaching readiness.
Overall, the common theme is that the Yankees’ bullpen situation benefits from their return, and the players’ timing is characterized as “near” rather than confirmed, with no additional information provided here about the specific injuries or exact return windows.
