Jonathan Loaisiga continues his recovery from an elbow procedure with promising performances in his rehab assignment. The New York Yankees' right-hander pitched 1 1/3 innings for the Tampa Tarpons, allowing one earned run but striking out three batters. This outing follows a scoreless inning where he showcased impressive velocity. The Yankees aim to have him back in the majors by the end of next month, which could significantly bolster a bullpen struggling with injuries and inconsistency.

Loaisiga's ability to induce strikeouts and maintain high velocity makes him a crucial asset for the Yankees. His potential return coincides with the team’s evaluation of Devin Williams, who has been reshuffling roles lately. As the Yankees navigate their bullpen's challenges, Loaisiga's healthy return could stabilize late-game situations.
