Former UCLA and LSU standout Thatcher Hurd, who the New York Yankees selected in the third round of the 2024 MLB Draft, will reportedly miss the entire 2025 season.

The New York Yankees expect to be without Luis Gil for three months, general manager Brian Cashman confirmed to reporters Thursday. The 2024 American League Rookie of the Year underwent testing and received a second opinion after being diagnosed with a strained lat earlier in the week.

Luis Gil, the 2024 American League Rookie of the Year Award winner, has been shut down for at least six weeks with a high-grade lat strain, New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone told reporters late Monday afternoon.

American League Rookie of the Year Luis Gil won't throw for at least six weeks due to a "high-degree lat strain," New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Monday afternoon. Gil was unable to get loose in a bullpen session on Friday and the Yankees sent him for an MRI exam on Saturday.

The reigning AL Rookie of the Year was diagnosed with a high-grade lat strain, manager Aaron Boone revealed on Monday at George M. Steinbrenner Field, which comes with at least a six-week shutdown, though the Yankees were still gathering more information and opinions from doctors.

Clarke Schmidt can relate. The righthander, off to a terrific start last season — 5-3 with a 2.52 ERA through 11 starts — suffered a lat strain during a May 26 outing in San Diego and missed more than three months. His next big-league start was Sept. 7.

We bring this up again in light of Monday’s reveal that Luis Gil is suffering from a high-grade lat strain, an injury that necessitates an immediate six-week shutdown, and the weekend update that Giancarlo Stanton will begin the season on the IL with his double-dose of tennis elbow.
