Amed Rosario lands on the Yankees’ 10-day injured list with a left SC joint sprain after colliding with the right-field fence in Houston, leaving New York to navigate the outfield mix while he’s sidelined. He’s optimistic about a quick return, aiming to come back exactly when the 10 days expire. The club recalled catcher J.C. Escarra to fill Rosario’s roster spot. Rosario’s brief, productive stretch in four games since the July 26 deal from Washington (3-for-7, several starts in right) underscores the depth challenge for a Yankees club already juggling bodies. Austin Slater’s hamstring strain, suffered after a White Sox trade, adds another depth wrinkle. The mix could tilt toward Grisham and Volpe in the short term, with Escarra offering a catcher’s contribution behind the plate as the team monitors Rosario’s timeline.

Fantasy angles lean toward elevated opportunity for Anthony Volpe, whose run production can benefit if Grisham earns more starts in center and the Yankees optimize their outfield alignment. Rosario’s absence creates a window for reserve outfielders to seize at-bats, while Escarra’s debut behind the plate will be a peripheral fantasy note unless he absorbs regular time. Stay tuned for how Grisham’s defense and baserunning impact daily lineups as the Yankees bridge the next 10 days.
