Posted: Sat Mar 8, 2025 1:49 pm
Gerrit Cole is scheduled to undergo tests on his right elbow nearly a year after he was shut down because of an elbow injury before missing the first 75 games of the 2024 season. Cole was later diagnosed with nerve irritation and edema. He avoided surgery and made his season debut June 19.
Cole has pitched six innings in two starts this spring. Cole finished the regular season with a 3.41 ERA in 95 innings over 17 starts before tallying a 2.17 ERA across five postseason outings.
Cole opted out of his contract after the World Series, but ultimately remained with the New York Yankees on his original contract worth $144 million over the next four seasons.
