Set to earn $4 million in 2024 Cortes (shoulder) signed a one-year $4 million contract with the Yankees on Thursday to avoid arbitration, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports.

Impact Cortes was limited to only 12 starts and 63.1 innings in 2023 due to a shoulder injury. Though he finished the year with a 4.97 ERA and 1.25 WHIP, he still maintained an impressive 17.7 K-BB% and should get better results in 2024 if he can stay healthy.

Shifted to 60-day IL Cortes (shoulder) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Tuesday, Greg Joyce of the New York Post reports.

Impact The move clears a spot on the 40-man roster for the addition of waiver claim Luke Weaver. Cortes had already been ruled out for the remainder of the season due to a left rotator cuff strain, although he is expected to resume throwing soon.

SEPTEMBER 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Unlikely to return this season Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Wednesday that Cortes (shoulder) will start a throwing program soon but isn't expected to return to game action this season, per MLB.com.

Impact Cortes has been on the IL since Aug. 11 due to a left rotator cuff strain. Boone indicated that the southpaw will resume throwing this weekend, so he appears to be improving, but the Yankees skipper also said that Cortes' season is likely over. If that's the case, Cortes will finish 2023 with a 4.97 ERA, 1.25 WHIP, 67:20 K:BB and 5-2 record over 63.1 innings covering 12 starts.

Shut down until mid-September Cortes (shoulder) said Friday he will be shut down from throwing for about a month, kdfj reports.

Impact Cortes was surprisingly placed on the 15-day injured list Friday with a left rotator cuff strain. He missed all of June and July with a shoulder injury, so this is pretty ominous injury as it pertains to his availability over the rest of the regular season. Cortes could resume a throwing program in mid-September, but he would likely need at least one simulated game or rehab start before rejoining the big-league rotation. He struck out eight and allowed one hit and one walk over four innings in his Aug. 5 start against Houston.

AUGUST 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Back to IL with rotator cuff strain Cortes was placed on the 15-day injured list Friday, retroactive to Aug. 8, with a left rotator cuff strain.

Impact Cortes just returned this past Saturday from a multi-month absence to heal a left shoulder strain and struck out eight of the 14 batters he faced in a strong four-inning start against the Astros. His shoulder is barking again, though, and the 28-year-old southpaw is faced with another extended absence. Jhony Brito has been called up in a corresponding 26-man roster move and will presumably start in Cortes' place this weekend at Miami.

Fans eight in return to rotation Cortes did not factor into the decision Saturday, allowing one run on one hit and one walk over four innings against Houston. He struck out eight.

Impact Cortes walked Jose Altuve to open the game before striking out the side, all swinging, to get out of the inning. The lefty would then give up a solo home run to Altuve in the third, though it was the only hit he allowed over his four innings of work, while posting a season-high eight strikeouts. Cortes even struck out the side in order before heading to the bench and he's now fanned at least five batters in each of his last four starts. The Yankees certainly have to feel good about what they saw out of Cortes in his return to the rotation following the shoulder injury.
