Ryan Weathers Exits Yankees Start vs. Blue Jays With Forearm Discomfort

Ryan Weathers did not finish his start against the Blue Jays, exiting early with left forearm discomfort, per Bryan Hoch of MLB.com. Imaging was scheduled for the same day, leaving his availability and next steps unresolved.

What we don't know yet

The results of that imaging had not been reported at the time of publication, so the nature and severity of the injury remain unclear. His availability going forward is an open question.

The broader picture

The Yankees are already navigating a crowded injury ledger. Giancarlo Stanton has been sidelined since April 24 with multiple calf strains, and manager Aaron Boone has suggested Stanton may have played his last game of the 2026 season after suffering a moderate grade left calf strain during a running drill. Boone separately expressed disappointment over Stanton's ongoing health situation, signaling it remains unresolved. On a somewhat lighter note, Cody Bellinger is targeting a Sunday return from a hamstring injury.

Weathers' early exit adds another thread to watch as the Yankees manage their pitching staff through the stretch run. Updates on imaging results would be the next meaningful development.
