Gerrit Cole Inches Closer to Return After Strong Rehab Outing

Gerrit Cole took a significant step toward returning to the New York Yankees rotation following a strong rehab appearance. While the outing was successful, the reigning Cy Young winner is expected to require at least one or two more rehab starts before he is deemed ready to rejoin the big-league club. The Yankees are monitoring his progress closely as he builds up his pitch count and stamina, aiming for a return that bolsters their pitching staff for the summer stretch.
