O'Day's (hamstring) mutual option for the 2022 season was declined Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
O'Day had a player option worth $1.4 million, which then converted to a $3.2 million club option. He was limited to only 10.2 innings in 2021 due to a hamstring injury, though he managed to post a 3.38 ERA and 1.22 WHIP with an 11:4 KBB prior to going down.

O'Day (hamstring) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Friday.
EDGE Analysis
It was announced this week the veteran right-hander will undergo season-ending surgery on his left hamstring, so it was only a matter of time before he was moved to the 60-day IL. O'Day was limited to only 10.2 innings this season and has yet to decide if he plans to continue his career in 2022.

O'Day will undergo season-ending surgery on his left hamstring Wednesday, David Lennon of Newsday reports.
EDGE Analysis
This news comes as no surprise, as manager Aaron Boone said Sunday that the right-hander's season was likely over. O'Day, who posted a 3.38 ERA and 1.22 WHIP across 10.2 innings this season, will likely be transferred to the 60-day injured list in the coming days. The 38-year-old has a player option to remain with the Yankees next season, but per Pete Caldera of The Bergen Record, he has yet to decide whether he will pitch in 2022.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Sunday that O'Day is expected to miss the rest of the season after suffering a "significant" left hamstring strain earlier this month, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.
EDGE Analysis
Boone didn't disclose whether O'Day would require surgery to address the hamstring injury, which is presumably a Grade 3 strain. Barring a speedier recovery than anticipated, O'Day, who picked up the injury in a pre-game workout, will finish the season with a 3.38 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and four holds across his 12 appearances out of the New York bullpen.

Manager Aaron Boone said O'Day is dealing with a "significant" strain to his left hamstring, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Yankees' skipper detailed that O'Day crumpled to the ground during a pregame workout Tuesday. A specific timeframe for the righty's return is unclear at this time, but an activation immediately following the All-Star break seems unlikely.

O'Day was placed on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with a left hamstring strain.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran right-hander returned from a lengthy absence due to a shoulder injury last week, and O'Day will return to the injured list after making only two appearances. Nick Nelson was recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in a corresponding move.

O'Day (shoulder) was reinstated from the injured list as expected Tuesday.

O'Day (shoulder) is on track to be activated from the 10-day injured list Tuesday, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
O'Day made his final rehab appearance Sunday, and the team appears poised to activate him prior to Tuesday's contest against the Angels. He hasn't pitched since April 29 against Baltimore after suffering a right shoulder strain.

O'Day (shoulder) is expected to make one more minor-league rehab appearance Sunday, Max Goodman of Sports Illustrated reports.
EDGE Analysis
The right-handed reliever has made two appearances with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre thus far, allowing two hits and no runs while striking out four over two innings. Should his final rehab outing go well, O'Day could be activated by the Yankees early next week.

O'Day (shoulder) began a rehab assignment with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
O'Day has been out with a right rotator cuff strain since late April. Given that he's missed nearly two months, he'll likely need a handful of rehab outings before he's cleared to return to the active roster.
