Impact Schmidt displayed some obvious rust in his first game action since he underwent an internal brace procedure on his right elbow last July. The veteran hurler threw 20 pitches in the outing. During his ramp-up, Schmidt's fastball has been hovering around 95 mph, per Chris Kirschner of The Athletic, which is about where it was pre-surgery. Schmidt figures to need more rehab appearances before he rejoins the Yankees, but he won't need to build up to a starter's workload since he'll be working out of the bullpen.

Beginning rehab at Double-A Schmidt (elbow) will begin a rehab assignment with Double-A Somerset on Saturday, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.

Impact This marks Schmidt's return to a competitive setting for the first time in nearly 14 months following internal brace surgery. While the fantasy implications are minimal since Schmidt is not expected to have time to build up to a starter's workload, the right-hander appears on track to contribute down the stretch as a member of the Yankees' bullpen.

Slated for rehab outing Saturday Schmidt (elbow) is expected to begin a rehab assignment Saturday, Meredith Marakovits of YES Network reports.

Impact It's unclear which affiliate Schmidt will be assigned to, but it will be his first time pitching in a game since he underwent an internal brace procedure last July. The expectation is that Schmidt will not have enough time to be built back up as a starting pitcher, but he could help the Yankees in a relief role in September.

Nearing rehab assignment Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Wednesday that Schmidt (elbow) is ready to embark on a rehab assignment, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.

Impact The exact date that Schmidt would start his rehab assignment has yet to be announced. However, it's another positive step in the right-hander's recovery from an internal brace procedure that he underwent in July of 2025. Schmidt will likely need a few minor-league outings before returning to the majors, and he's expected to work out of the bullpen in a relief role once he's cleared to be reinstated from the 60-day injured list.

Slated to toss live BP on Tuesday Schmidt (elbow) is scheduled to throw live batting practice Tuesday, MLB.com reports.

Impact Schmidt has been on the IL all season while he's rehabbed from the internal brace procedure he underwent last July. The 30-year-old hurler could begin a minor-league rehab assignment before the end of August if his live BP session Tuesday goes well. Schmidt could then return to the big-league club at some point in September, though the expectation is that he will work out of the bullpen.

Preparing for relief role upon return Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Sunday that Schmidt (elbow) will be preparing to return from the 60-day injured list as a reliever, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News report...

Impact Since Boone made those comments, the Yankees have placed Max Fried back on the IL with a bone bruise in his elbow, but with Carlos Rodon (elbow) returning from the IL on Tuesday, the team will have a five-man rotation intact. As such, the Yankees' plans for Schmidt may not have changed, but the 30-year-old right-hander will still need to complete his throwing progression and a rehab assignment before being available for the big club in any capacity. Schmidt has been limited to throwing off flat ground since cutting a live batting practice session short Aug. 4 after experiencing some forearm cramping, but Boone expects Schmidt to get back on a mound at some point this week.
