Yankees' Tommy Kahnle: Still week away from return
Kahnle (biceps) could rejoin the Yankees' bullpen for next weekend's series against the Dodgers, manager Aaron Boone told Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News on Friday.
Kahnle indicated earlier this week that he should be ready to go following a third rehab appearance Thursday, but evidently the Yankees want him to knock a little more rust off. The reliever hasn't allowed a hit or a run in three rehab innings, striking out two and walking one. Kahnle has been out all season with right biceps tendinitis.

Yankees' Tommy Kahnle: Throws 15-pitch side session
Kahnle (biceps) threw a 15-pitch bullpen session at Target Field on Wednesday, and he'll throw another side session Sunday in Texas, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
Kahnle said after his bullpen session Wednesday that he "felt great," but he will now need to see how he responds to the session in the coming days before the Yankees determine his next steps. The 33-year-old has yet to make his season debut after being diagnosed with right biceps tendinitis during spring training. Once healthy, Kahnle should be a middle-innings option out of the bullpen, but he'll likely make multiple rehab appearances before he's eligible to return from the 60-day injured list in late May.

Yankees' Tommy Kahnle: Yet to throw off mound
Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Tuesday that Kahnle's (biceps) throwing program is "going well," but the pitcher hasn't thrown off a mound yet, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.

Manager Aaron Boone said Kahnle (biceps) should resume throwing in a few days after receiving a cortisone injection Tuesday, Greg Joyce of the New York Post reports.
Kahnle should still miss at least a few weeks to begin the regular season, as biceps tendinitis has prevented him from progressing in his throwing program. Assuming he returns to full health, the veteran right-hander should see some high-leverage opportunities this season in his second stint with the Yankees.

Yankees' Tommy Kahnle: Back in Bronx on two-year deal
Kahnle signed a two-year, $11.5 million deal with the Yankees on Tuesday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
Kahnle owns a 3.78 career ERA across 290.1 major-league innings, but just 13.2 of those innings have come in the last three seasons, as he's dealt with Tommy John surgery and other arm troubles. The 33-year-old righty finds himself back in a spot where he's had success in the past, as he spent parts of four seasons as a Yankee, notably producing a 3.67 ERA and 35.5 percent strikeout rate in 2019. Kahnle has only five career saves and probably won't add too many to that total this season, but he could feature regularly in the seventh and eighth innings if he pitches well.

Dodgers' Tommy Kahnle: Records first save in four years
Kahnle picked up a save against the Padres on Wednesday, striking out one batter in a perfect 10th inning.
After the Dodgers scored the game's first run in the top of the 10th, Kahnle was called upon to close the door in the bottom of the frame. The automatic runner moved to third base with one out, but Kahnle then struck out Trent Grisham and induced a Ha-Seong Kim groundout to finish off his first save since 2018. The right-hander has held the opponent scoreless in nine of 11 appearances this season and could see more save chances moving forward now that manager Dave Roberts has transitioned to a closer committee after moving Craig Kimbrel out of the role.
