Luis Gil Fantasy Stats

New York Yankees right-handed pitcher Luis Gil (lat) completed 57 pitches in his latest rehab outing with Double-A Somerset on Friday evening. In this outing, Gil was able to log 3 1/3 innings of two-run ball. He allowed two hits, two walks, and struck out seven. In his first rehab outing, Gil also tossed 3 1/3 innings of one-run ball with six punchouts. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status as he appears to be nearing the end of his rehab stint. He will likely need to make one appearance with Triple-A and increase his pitch count once again before being activated off the 60-day IL. The 27-year-old has been sidelined with a high-grade lat strain through the entire first half. Last season, Gil was effective on the bump, holding a 3.50 ERA with a 1.19 WHIP. He is worth stashing ahead of his activation in all standard leagues.

New York Yankees right-hander Luis Gil (lat) made a pitching appearance in a game for the first time since October 2024, allowing two hits, a walk, and an earned run while striking out six across 3 1/3 innings. Gil continues to recover from a lat strain and was pulled after 50 pitches. He will likely need a few more rehab outings as the Yankees could consider activating him from the injured list once he reaches 75 pitches. If not, 90 pitches would be the return threshold. Gil posted a 3.50 ERA and 1.19 WHIP over 151 2/3 innings with 171 strikeouts last season. Fantasy managers should continue to stash Gil as he could rejoin the Yankees' rotation by the end of July.

New York Yankees starter Luis Gil (lat) was sharp in his first rehab outing as he works his way back from a lat injury that has prevented him from pitching in the big leagues so far in 2025. Gil got the start for Double-A Somerset and threw 3 1/3 innings, allowing two hits, a walk, and an earned run while striking out six. Gil was removed from the game after 50 pitches, so he'll likely need at least a few more rehab appearances before rejoining the Yankees. The 27-year-old flamethrower won the American League Rookie of the Year award in 2024, going 15-7 with a 3.50 ERA, 1.19 WHIP, and 171 strikeouts in 151 2/3 innings (29 starts). There's a clear spot for him in the Yankees' rotation now that fellow starter Clarke Schmidt has been lost for the year due to Tommy John surgery.

New York Yankees right-hander Luis Gil (lat) will begin a rehab assignment on Sunday and be built up as a starter, according to Talkin' Yanks. The 2024 American League Rookie of the Year, Gil has yet to pitch for the Yankees in 2025 after straining his right lat in Spring Training. In 151 2/3 innings (29 starts) last season, Gil went 15-7 with a 3.50 ERA, 1.19 WHIP, and 171 strikeouts. Walks are a major issue for Gil (12.1% BB rate), but he was able to work around it in 2024 by limiting hard contact (37% hard-hit rate allowed). Gil should be a target for fantasy managers when he makes his return, especially those in need of strikeouts.

New York Yankees right-hander Luis Gil (lat) has begun throwing live batting practice, with a minor-league rehab assignment scheduled for next week. The 2024 AL Rookie of the Year has been sidelined since March 24 with a high-grade right lat strain and is eyeing a return shortly after the All-Star break. Gil played a pivotal role in the Yankees' World Series run last season. In 2024, he posted a 3.50 ERA with 171 strikeouts across 151 2/3 innings. His arsenal is headlined by a 96.6 mph fastball that sets up a sharp 87 mph slider. With Clarke Schmidt (elbow) expected to undergo Tommy John surgery, Gil is poised to slot back into the rotation. Fantasy managers should stash Gil now as he has league-winning upside in the second half.

New York Yankees right-hander Luis Gil (lat) is scheduled to throw a live batting practice session on Tuesday with Double-A Somerset, and his minor-league rehab assignment could start this Sunday, according to MLB.com's Bryan Hoch. Gil is expected to throw around 35 pitches during his live BP session on Tuesday after completing bullpen sessions on a regular basis recently. The 27-year-old will need at least a few starts in the minors before the Yankees consider activating him for his 2025 season debut in late July or early August. Gil won the American League Rookie of the Year honors in 2024 with a 3.50 ERA, but his 4.36 xFIP and .237 BABIP shows that he was probably fortunate to be as good as he was last year. He has plenty of strikeout stuff after fanning 26.8% of the batters he faced, but he also had an elevated 12.1% walk rate. Fantasy managers might want to temper expectations upon his return.

New York Yankees right-hander Luis Gil (lat) is facing hitters on Saturday at Yankee Stadium before the game against the division-rival Baltimore Orioles for the first time since his lat injury in late February during spring training. MLB.com's Bryan Hoch reports that Gil's velocity is believed to be in the mid-90s. The 27-year-old is recovering from a right-lat strain that has kept him out for all of the 2025 season so far. He's making progress, but Gil isn't expected to return from the injured list to make his season debut until after the mid-July All-Star break. Gil will need to go on a lengthy minor-league rehab assignment first. The Dominican hurler was named the American League Rookie of the Year in 2024 after going 15-7 with a 3.50 ERA and 1.19 WHIP with 171 walks in 151 2/3 innings over 29 starts, but he also walked a league-high 77 batters.

Gil has been on the shelf since suffering a high-grade lat strain in early March. While the 2024 American League Rookie of the Year is progressing in his recovery, it should still be several weeks before he's ready to return to the majors.

New York Yankees starting pitcher Luis Gil (lat) is reportedly unlikely to return until after the All-Star break. Gil resumed throwing the baseball towards the end of May, but he still has more work to do. Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Gil won't face live hitters for another week or two. Given the timetable of events that needs to happen, Gil is unlikely to see the mound for another month at least. If everything goes well, Gil should be able to get back in the Yankees rotation by the end of July or early August.

New York Yankees starting pitcher Luis Gil (lat) took the mound for his first bullpen session since suffering his injury. Gil threw a 15-pitch outing without any issues, according to Yankees' manager Aaron Boone. This is a step in the right direction for Gil who is still a long way from getting back on the mound in the Bronx. The hope is that Gil can build on this and continue to increase his pitch count with each session until he's ready for a minor league rehab assignment. The expectation is that Gil is likely going to be sidelined until around mid-July. The right-hander is making progress, but he still has more work to do.
