Nick Burdi's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

New York Yankees right-hander Nick Burdi (hip) is going to have another live batting practice session before he possibly starts a minor-league rehab assignment. Burdi is dealing with inflammation in his right hip and recently suffered a setback but he's throwing again and is getting close to going on a rehab assignment. Assuming everything goes well when he resumes throwing in games, the 31-year-old veteran should be able to return to New York's bullpen in early August. He's been out of action since late May. In his first year in the Bronx before getting hurt in the first half of the 2024 campaign, Burdi was pitching very well and had a career-best 1.86 ERA (5.43 FIP) and 1.45 WHIP with 12 strikeouts and nine walks in 9 2/3 innings out of the bullpen.

New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said relief pitcher Nick Burdi (hip) is expected to come off the injured list and rejoin the bullpen on Friday for the start of a series in Tampa against the Rays. Burdi was put on the injured list on April 19 with right-hip inflammation but is now ready to return to the Bronx. The 31-year-old struck out all three batters he faced in his only inning of work with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in his line minor-league rehab outing. Burdi isn't really on the fantasy radar in a middle-relief role for the Yankees, but he's been lights-out so far, tossing 6 1/3 shutout innings with a win, five walks and eight strikeouts in seven appearances out of the bullpen.

New York Yankees relief pitcher Nick Burdi (elbow) has been placed on the 15-day injured list on Friday. This is a tough blow to the Yankees bullpen that is already dealing with injuries. Burdi was pitching well as he hasn't allowed a run through 6 1/3 innings this season. The Yankees are hopeful that it'll be a minimal stint on the injured list for Burdi. In a corresponding move, right-hander Cody Morris has been recalled from Triple-A to take the spot on the active roster.
