Marcus Stroman Fantasy Stats

The New York Yankees announced on Friday that they released veteran right-hander Marcus Stroman. In additional moves, the team added their recent trade acquisitions in right-handers David Bednar, Jake Bird and Camilo Doval and infielder/outfielder Jose Caballero to the active roster. Stroman leaves the organization after picking up his third win of the year on Thursday over the Tampa Bay Rays. The 34-year-old just was not very effective in his nine starts in the Bronx in 2025, sporting a career-worst 6.23 ERA (5.15 FIP) and 1.54 WHIP with only 26 strikeouts and 16 walks in 39 innings pitched. It remains to be seen if Stroman will latch on with another team before the end of the season, but if he does, it will likely come on a minor-league contract with no guarantee that he'll be back in the big leagues by October.

The New York Yankees have activated right-handed pitcher Marcus Stroman (knee) off the 15-day injured list prior to his start on Sunday against the Athletics. Stroman has been sidelined since April due to this injury. Stroman did not find much success during his first three outings of the season. Through 9 1/3 innings of work, the right-hander posted a high 11.57 ERA with a 2.04 WHIP. During this stint, he tallied just seven strikeouts and allowed walks at a high 14.9% rate. Through 10 1/3 innings of rehab work, Stroman showed similar struggles, allowing eight runs, 13 hits, and a 9:5 K:BB. Last season with the Yankees, Stroman held a modest 4.31 ERA and a 1.47 WHIP. Given his struggles through the early part of the campaign, he is best to fade in all formats facing the Athletics.

New York Yankees starting pitcher Marcus Stroman (knee) will start Sunday's home game against the Athletics, according to manager Aaron Boone. The veteran has been sidelined with knee inflammation, but has recovered and completed three minor league rehab starts, although they came with a 6.97 ERA, 1.74 WHIP, and a 9:5 K:BB in 10 1/3 IP. Before the injury, the 34-year-old righty made three starts for New York, posting an 11.57 ERA, 2.04 WHIP, and a 7:7 K:BB in 9 1/3 IP. Fantasy managers thinking of picking up the former 2x All-Star may want to see him string together a couple of solid outings before doing so, although the Athletics have been shut out in three of their last five games, so perhaps it is a good spot for Stroman to get going.

New York Yankees starting pitcher Marcus Stroman (knee) was lit up in his third rehab start, allowing five runs on 10 hits and two walks over 3 innings. He threw 65 pitches and struck out one. All three of his rehab starts have come at the Double-A Level, and they've progressively gotten worse each time he takes the mound. The Yankees desperately need the rotation help, with Allan Winans currently penciled in as their fifth starter, but Stroman certainly isn't creating much optimism that he would be any better. Even before heading to the injured list with knee inflammation, the veteran posted an 11.57 ERA through three starts.

New York Yankees right-hander Marcus Stroman (knee) made his first minor-league rehab start with Double-A Somerset on Wednesday against Double-A Portland and looked good, allowing an earned run on one hit while walking two and striking out four in 3 1/3 innings pitched. It was the first game for Stroman since he landed on the 15-day injured list back on April 11 with inflammation in his left knee. The 34-year-old is being built back up as a starter on his rehab assignment, but that doesn't mean he'll be guaranteed a starting rotation spot when he's back in the Bronx. The two-time All-Star let up 12 earned runs on 12 hits (two homers) while walking seven and striking out seven in 9 1/3 innings over three starts early this season before injuring his knee. Even if Stroman is able to bounce back upon his return and induce more ground balls, there's little fantasy upside remaining in his arm.

According to Bryan Hoch, beat writer for the New York Yankees, the Yankees are building up Marcus Stroman (knee) as a starting pitcher, Aaron Boone said. Stroman threw live batting practice again on Thursday, felt good, and could begin a rehab assignment soon. The news is positive for Stroman and the Yankees, as he hasn't pitched since mid-April due to a knee injury. That also means that he will likely require an extended rehab assignment, making a post-All-Star break return realistic. Even then, Stroman was off to a terrible start this season with an 11.57 ERA and a mediocre 4.31 ERA in 2024. Fantasy managers will want to keep him on the waiver wire and only consider Stroman when he returns and has a few good starts in a row.

New York Yankees right-hander Marcus Stroman (knee) has been dealing with persistent discomfort in his left knee, but tests have not shown any structural damage. Stroman threw a side session on Saturday and is scheduled to throw a bullpen session on Tuesday, according to MLB.com. The 34-year-old veteran is currently on the 15-day injured list with left-knee inflammation, but there's still a chance he can return before the end of May if his bullpen session goes off without a hitch on Tuesday. Right-hander Will Warren has held his own in New York's starting rotation this year with Stroman on the injured list, so when Stroman is ready, fantasy managers shouldn't just assume he'll be back in the rotation in the Bronx. The two-time All-Star looked washed up in his first three starts in 2025 before getting hurt, allowing 12 earned runs while walking seven and striking out seven in 9 1/3 frames.

New York Yankees right-hander Marcus Stroman (knee) has been dealing with persistent discomfort in his left knee, which has required multiple cortisone injections, according to MLB.com. However, the good news is that imaging has not shown any structural damage. Stroman is currently on the 15-day injured list due to left-knee inflammation. The 34-year-old veteran was nearing a minor-league rehab assignment before this setback, so it's now unclear when he might rejoin the big-league club. He's been on the IL since April 12, so when Stroman does go on a rehab assignment, it could be a lengthy one. The two-time All-Star allowed an unsightly 12 earned runs on 12 hits (two homers) while walking seven and striking out seven in 9 1/3 innings over three starts for the Yanks before his injury. There's a good chance Stroman will return in a long-relief role when he's healthy.

New York Yankees right-hander Marcus Stroman (knee) threw off a bullpen mound last Friday and on Monday, and his next step is to face live hitters in batting practice "later in the week, and then we'll see where we are," manager Aaron Boone said. Stroman has received multiple injections to alleviate discomfort in his inflamed left knee. The Yankees placed the 34-year-old veteran on the 15-day injured list in mid-April with left-knee inflammation. Stroman will most likely require at least a short minor-league rehab assignment before coming off the IL, but when he's ready, there's a good chance he'll head to the bullpen in the Bronx. In his three starts before getting hurt, Stroman was roughed up to the tune of 12 earned runs on 12 hits (two homers) while walking seven and striking out seven against the Brewers, Pirates and Giants.

New York Yankees right-handed pitcher Marcus Stroman (knee) is still dealing with discomfort in his left knee. The 33-year-old has been sidelined with left knee inflammation for the past two weeks and has been on the 15-day injured list. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status, but since he continues to face limitations, his return window will likely be pushed back. Through his three starts of the season (nine 1/3 innings), the right-hander has held a high 11.57 ERA with a 2.04 WHIP. During this stint, he has struck out seven batters but has also served up seven free passes. Last season, Stroman struggled as well, as he posted a 4.31 ERA with a 1.47 WHIP. While Stroman remains sidelined, fantasy managers should expect Will Warren and Carlos Carrasco to remain in the rotation.
