Luke Weaver returns from IL, Trent Grisham praised for his calm attitude, and an ex-Yankee shares a rental horror story.
ESPN | Jorge Castillo:
Luke Weaver made an early return from the injured list on Friday, giving a much-needed boost to the Yankees’ bullpen amid recent roster shuffles. Initially projected to miss four to six weeks, Weaver came back in under three. Manager Aaron Boone stated that Weaver would now share closing duties with Devin Williams, who began the year as the team’s closer but lost the role after a shaky start.
Daily News | Gary Phillips:
Trent Grisham has become an unexpectedly key figure in the Yankees’ lineup, known as much for his laid-back personality as his performance on the field. Grisham’s calm, focused mindset has caught attention—he even asked reporters what time first pitch was on game day. Boone praised Grisham’s plate discipline despite a slump, noting his consistency in at-bats and optimism about a turnaround.

The home was plagued with mold, ants, squirrels, and broken plumbing, which led to health issues for Donaldson’s pregnant partner and their toddler. The experience marked a troubling off-field chapter during Donaldson’s time with the Yankees.
