Rotowire
Double-A Somerset reinstated Hardman (elbow) from the 60-day injured list May 27 and assigned him to High-A Hudson Valley.
Hardman finished the 2023 season at Somerset, but he'll get some more time at Hudson Valley to regain form at the plate while he eases back into the mix following Tommy John surgery, which he underwent last October. Through his first 10 games at the High-A level, Hardman is hitting .231 with three extra-base hits and a 39.5 percent strikeout rate.

Yankees' Tyler Hardman: On mend from Tommy John surgery
Rotowire
Hardman had Tommy John surgery in October and should return to action this summer for Double-A Somerset, Jim Callis of MLB.com reports.
A 25-year-old third baseman, Hardman logged a .237/.332/.558 slash line with 26 home runs and a 33.2 percent strikeout rate in 77 games last season at Double-A. Given his age, he will need to make significant gains with his hit tool after getting healthy in order to project as a future big leaguer.
