Manager Aaron Boone said Friday that Taillon (ankle) has a "good chance" to rejoin the Yankees' rotation during next week's series against the Blue Jays, Pete Caldera of The Bergen Record reports.

EDGE Analysis

Taillon is currently on a rehab assignment at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre and allowed two runs on four hits and no walks while striking out two in three innings Wednesday. It's not yet clear whether he'll appear in the minors this weekend, but he's on track to rejoin the Yankees for the final week of the regular season. Boone didn't indicate which game Taillon will pitch in the series against Toronto that runs from Tuesday to Thursday.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Taillon (ankle) will likely begin a minor-league rehab assignment Wednesday, Lindsey Adler of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Taillon will presumably report to either Double-A Somerset or Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre for what should be only one rehab start before he rejoins the big club. The right-hander has been on the shelf for just two weeks with the right ankle tendon sprain, so the one start should be all he needs to fully ramp up. Due to off days this Thursday and next Monday, the Yankees will be able to get by with a four-man rotation until Oct. 2, though Taillon could be added to the mix a few days before then, if desired.

Taillon (ankle) could make a minor-league rehab start during the coming week, Max Goodman of SI.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Taillon tossed a bullpen session Saturday, and his next step is expected to be a short rehab start within the next several days. If that goes well, the right-hander could subsequently return to the Yankees rotation, per Pete Caldera of The Bergen Record. Taillon's last big-league appearance was Sept. 6 against Toronto, when he gave up three runs in seven innings and suffered the loss.

Taillon (ankle) felt good after Wednesday's bullpen session, Meredith Marakovits of YES Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Taillon's throwing session Wednesday marked the first time he had thrown off a mound since he landed on the injured list in early September. The right-hander doesn't yet have a timetable to return to game action, but he's expected to throw another bullpen session Saturday. Taillon is eligible to return to the major-league roster as early as Friday, but he'll require some additional time to build up before he's activated.

Taillon (ankle) completed a bullpen session Wednesday, Kristie Ackert of the New York Daily News reports.

EDGE Analysis

After playing catch Monday without any discomfort in his right ankle, Taillon was cleared to take the next step forward in his recovery from the injury by getting back on a mound. The Yankees will presumably re-evaluate Taillon on Thursday before determining whether he's ready to rejoin the rotation this weekend versus Cleveland, or if he'll need to first ramp back up with a simulated game or minor-league rehab assignment. Once Taillon is ready to go, he'll likely bump Luis Gil from New York's rotation.

Taillon (ankle) was spotted throwing on the field Monday prior to the Yankees' make-up game against the Twins, Kristie Ackert of the New York Daily News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Taillon's presence on the field to begin the week suggests he responded well to the platelet-rich plasma injection he recently received in his right ankle, but he'll still need to get back on a mound and complete a bullpen session before the Yankees pinpoint a target date for his return from the 10-day injured list. With Taillon on the shelf, rookie Luis Gil will stick in the New York rotation for the time being and pick up his fifth start with the big club Monday.

Taillon was placed on the 10-day injured list with a right ankle tendon injury Thursday, retroactive to Sept. 7.

EDGE Analysis

Taillon posted a quality start in Monday's loss to the Blue Jays, as he allowed three runs in seven innings, but he apparently sustained an ankle injury. The severity of the issue isn't yet clear, but he received a PRP injection to help him recover, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports. The Yankees haven't yet announced who will take his place in the rotation, but right-hander Sal Romano's contract was selected Thursday.

Taillon (8-6) took the loss in Monday's 8-0 rout at the hands of the Blue Jays, giving up three runs on three hits and two walks over seven innings. He struck out five.

EDGE Analysis

The right-hander didn't pitch too badly in delivering his eighth quality start of the year, tossing 62 of 94 pitches for strikes, but two of the three hits off Taillon left the yard and the Yankees' offense left him high and dry. He'll take a 4.41 ERA and 136:42 K:BB through 138.2 innings into his next outing.

Taillon (8-5) allowed six earned runs on five hits and two walks while striking out six across 4.2 innings, taking the loss to the Angels on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Taillon started off with three scoreless innings, but surrendered three runs in each of the fourth and fifth frames. He allowed a three-run homer to Jared Walsh to open up the scoring. Taillon has struggled lately, failing to record a quality outing over his past four starts. The 29-year-old's ERA and WHIP have climbed to 4.44 and 1.24. He has recorded 131 strikeouts in 131.2 innings this season.

Taillon took a no-decision in Thursday's 7-6 win against Oakland, allowing five runs on four hits and three walks with four strikeouts in 3.2 innings.

EDGE Analysis

After being staked to an early 6-0 lead and retiring the Athletics' first six batters, Taillon served up back-to-back homers to lead off the third then three more runs in the fourth and was promptly removed. This was the righty's shortest start since June 18 and snaps a streak of nine starts allowing three earned runs or less. Taillon's now failed to surpass five strikeouts in eight of his last nine starts to total 43 whiffs in 50.1 innings over the stretch.
