Gerrit Cole is already touching 97 mph in live batting practice less than a year after Tommy John surgery, Yankees GM Brian Cashman said. Cashman called it “comforting” and praised the pitching staff’s spring work overall. Ryan Weathers also hit a career-high 99.8 mph in his spring debut.
Cole’s velocity and progress are key for his return timeline. If he’s on track for a full season, he would reclaim his spot at the front of the Yankees’ rotation.
