Yankees news: Wells feels good after return, Grisham progressing well
Key Points:
- Austin Wells returned from the injured list after two weeks due to cervical headaches, going 0-for-2 in his first game back but expressing confidence in his performance and health moving forward.
- Trent Grisham is showing positive progress in his recovery from a hamstring injury, performing agility drills and potentially returning soon, which would bolster the Yankees' offense depth.
- Jasson Domínguez is adjusting to playing right field in Aaron Judge’s absence, showing both promising plays and some struggles; coaches remain optimistic about his adaptation to the position at Yankee Stadium.
- J.C. Escarra was optioned to the minors after Wells’ return but is expected to be recalled soon due to Ali Sánchez's upcoming paternity leave, despite Escarra’s modest offensive stats this season.
