Yankees Sign Ryan Yarbrough, Face Injuries to Star Pitchers

News summary

The New York Yankees are facing significant challenges as they start the season, with three of their five projected starting pitchers, including ace Gerrit Cole, sidelined due to injuries. Cole is out for the entire year following Tommy John surgery, while Luis Gil and Clarke Schmidt also face extended absences. In response, the Yankees have signed veteran left-hander Ryan Yarbrough to bolster their rotation, which will also include free agent Max Fried and veteran Carlos Carrasco. Young pitcher Will Warren has earned a spot on the Opening Day roster, providing hope amid the injuries. The team's general manager, Brian Cashman, is exploring options to strengthen the pitching staff, including potential trades, as they aim to remain competitive. The Yankees' depth will be tested early in the season, but they are hopeful that their temporary solutions can fill the gaps left by their injured stars.
