Fantasy Impact:

Schmidt’s shoulder recovery, with Thursday’s live BP next, won’t hit 75-80 pitches for the Yankees’ April 3 start versus the Diamondbacks, per Boone’s cautious Wednesday stance—Carlos Carrasco and Will Warren may step in. His delay could be short. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues should roster him, expecting a quick return to bolster New York’s rotation if setbacks are avoided early in 2025.
