  • Yankees' Scott Effross: On way back to big leagues

    The Yankees recalled Effross from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Thursday.

    It's the corresponding move for Brent Headrick, whose demotion to Scranton/Wilkes-Barre was already announced. Effross holds a 12.71 ERA at SWB in 2025 but has turned in consecutive scoreless appearances.

  • Yankees' Scott Effross: Activated, sent to Triple-A

    The Yankees reinstated Effross (hamstring) from the 15-day injured list Sunday and optioned him to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

    The right-hander opened the campaign on the injured list due to a hamstring strain he suffered at the start of spring training, and he won't immediately join the big-league club upon being activated. Effross hasn't seen significant action in the majors since 2022, when he had a 2.54 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 62:15 K:BB in 60 regular-season appearances between the Cubs and Yankees.

  • Yankees' Scott Effross: Shifting rehab to Double-A

    Effross (hamstring) had his rehab assignment transferred to Double-A Somerset on Saturday.

    Effross made one rehab appearance for the Yankees' Florida Complex League affiliate Tuesday, when he allowed one hit and struck out one batter in a scoreless inning without issuing a walk. He's in the final stages of his recovery from the Grade 2 left hamstring strain that he suffered in late February.

  • Yankees' Scott Effross: Beginning rehab assignment

    Effross (hamstring) has been sent to the Yankees' Florida Complex League affiliate to begin a rehab assignment.

    Effross has been out since late February with a Grade 2 hamstring strain but is finally ready to test things out in a game setting. The reliever should be ready to rejoin the Yankees' bullpen later this month, barring any setbacks.

  • Yankees' Scott Effross: Will face hitters soon

    Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Monday that Effross (hamstring) will throw live batting practice soon, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.

    Out since late February with a Grade 2 hamstring strain, Effross began a throwing program in early April and is ready to progress to facing hitters. He should be ready for a rehab assignment soon, although there's no timetable for the reliever's return to the Yankees' bullpen.

  • Yankees' Scott Effross: Resumes throwing

    Manager Aaron Boone said Saturday that Effross (hamstring) has resumed his throwing program, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.

    Boone added that he's not sure what stage Effross is at in his recovery, though the fact that he's back to throwing again after suffering a setback is encouraging. The right-hander has been out since late February with a Grade 2 hamstring strain and is likely still several weeks from returning.

  • Yankees' Scott Effross: Suffers setback with hamstring

    Effross suffered a setback with his strained hamstring and remains in a holding pattern with his recovery, Greg Joyce of the New York Post reports.

    Effross suffered a Grade 2 left hamstring strain in his first appearance of the spring back on Feb. 25 and remains without an official timetable for his return. He's yet to advance to facing hitters. The 31-year-old right-hander pitched just 3.1 innings in the big leagues with the Yankees last season, registering a 5.40 ERA and 2:2 K:BB across three regular-season appearances.

  • Yankees' Scott Effross: Moves to IL

    The Yankees placed Effross (hamstring) on the 15-day injured list Wednesday.

    The right-hander suffered a Grade 2 left hamstring strain in his first appearance of spring training and remains without an official timeline for his return. Effross missed a significant chunk of 2024 due to back surgery and spent most of the time he was healthy at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, where he had a 2.78 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 28:9 K:BB over 32.1 innings.

  • Yankees' Scott Effross: Suffers Grade 2 hamstring strain

    Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Thursday that Effross has been diagnosed with a Grade 2 left hamstring strain, Greg Joyce of the New York Post reports.

    Effross suffered the moderate hamstring strain while delivering his one and only pitch during a Grapefruit League appearance earlier this week. The reliever has been given a platelet-rich plasma injection and is looking at an extended absence. Effross has made just 32 appearances over the last two seasons due to injury.

  • Yankees' Scott Effross: Will have tests on hamstring

    Effross will likely undergo testing after exiting a Grapefruit League appearance Tuesday against the Twins with a hamstring injury, Greg Joyce of the New York Post reports.

    Effross lasted only one pitch before grabbing at his hamstring and walking off the field with the trainer. The reliever missed all of the 2023 season while recovering from Tommy John surgery and made just 32 appearances between the majors and minors in 2024 while coming back from back surgery.

  • Yankees' Scott Effross: Leaves with leg injury

    Effross was removed from Tuesday's Grapefruit League appearance versus the Twins with an apparent leg injury, Greg Joyce of the New York Post reports.

    Effross threw just one pitch in the bottom of the eighth inning before grabbing his hamstring area and walking off the mound with the trainer. The Yankees should have more on the reliever's condition soon.

  • Yankees' Scott Effross: Settles with New York

    The Yankees and Effross avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year, $800,000 contract Thursday, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.

    Effross made just three appearances in the majors in 2024 and none in 2023 due to Tommy John and back surgeries. He's healthy now and will look to regain the form that allowed him to put up a 2.78 ERA and 80:16 K:BB over 71.1 frames from 2021 to 2022.

  • Yankees' Scott Effross: Sent to Triple-A

    Effross was optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Sunday.

    Effross logged 1.1 innings Friday and may not have been used Sunday, so he was the roster casualty to make room for Ben Rice.

  • Yankees' Scott Effross: Back in big leagues

    The Yankees recalled Effross from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Thursday.

    He'll take the roster and bullpen spot vacated by Mark Leiter, who has been placed on paternity leave. Effross has permitted two runs over two innings during his time with the Yankees this season.

  • Yankees' Scott Effross: Optioned to Triple-A

    The Yankees optioned Effross to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Thursday.

    Effross tossed 1.1 scoreless innings in Wednesday's loss to the Rangers but finds himself back in the minors a day later. The Yankees will announce a corresponding move prior to Friday's game versus the Cubs, and it could be Ian Hamilton (lat) returning from the injured list.

  • Yankees' Scott Effross: Receives September call-up

    The Yankees recalled Effross from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Sunday.

    Effross's next appearance with the Yankees will be his first since Oct. 3, 2022, as he missed the team's playoff run that season due to an elbow injury that required Tommy John surgery. He likely would have been fully cleared for the start of spring training this year, but he underwent back surgery this past winter that prevented him from beginning a rehab assignment until late June. Once Effross was activated from the 60-day injured list over the All-Star break, the Yankees optioned him to Triple-A, where he's flourished in recent weeks. Dating back to Aug. 1, Effross has posted a 1.42 ERA, 0.79 WHIP and 12:2 K:BB in 12.2 innings. He'll likely have to settle for low-leverage work out of the Yankees' bullpen initially but could push his way into a more meaningful role if he fares well.

  • Yankees' Scott Effross: Expected back in majors soon

    Yankees pitching coach Matt Blake said Tuesday that Effross has "thrown the ball really well lately" at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre and should be recalled soon, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.

    In addition to allowing just two runs in eight innings this month, Effross' velocity has ticked back up, and he's "been bouncing back" from outings well, per Blake. Effross last appeared in the majors in 2022 and has had Tommy John and back surgeries since then. He could provide a big boost to the New York bullpen down the stretch if he can regain the form that allowed him to post a 2.54 ERA and 62:15 K:BB over 56.2 frames for the Cubs and Yankees in 2022.

  • Yankees' Scott Effross: Activated and optioned

    The Yankees activated Effross (back) from the 60-day injured list and optioned him to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Sunday.

    He had a 3.86 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 10 strikeouts in 9.1 innings over eight appearances on his four-week rehab assignment, and the Yankees aren't quite ready to add him to the big-league bullpen. Effross had back surgery in December while recovering from October 2022 Tommy John surgery.
