Severino (elbow) suffered a right groin injury during his rehab outing with High-A Hudson Valley on Saturday and will undergo an MRI on Sunday, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.
EDGE Analysis
The right-hander had to be helped off the field, which suggests that there's at least a chance the injury could be serious. The Yankees will surely have a better grasp on the severity of the groin issue following Sunday's MRI.

Severino (elbow) was helped off the field during his rehab start for High-A Hudson Valley on Saturday due to an apparent right leg injury, Conor Foley of The Scranton Times-Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Severino had been working his way back from Tommy John surgery and was making his second rehab start, tracking toward a return to the active roster sometime around the All-Star break. The exact nature and severity of his leg injury are unclear, and while it's a good thing that he's not dealing with an arm-related setback, anything more than a very minor issue is likely to delay his timeline.

Severino (elbow) was transferred to High-A Hudson Valley on Saturday to continue his rehab assignment.
EDGE Analysis
He struck out three while giving up one run in 2.2 innings June 6 at Low-A and will move up one level for his next rehab outing. Severino has a chance to return just before the All-Star break if he can avoid setbacks.

Severino (elbow) threw 34 pitches in his rehab start for Low-A Tampa on Sunday, Brendan Kuty of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.
EDGE Analysis
Severino's fastball hit 98.8 mph, and he also mixed in 11 sliders in his first rehab appearance Sunday as he continues to work his way back from Tommy John surgery. The right-hander is expected to make his next rehab start Saturday, and he could report to High-A Hudson Valley for the outing, Pete Caldera of The Bergen Record reports.

Severino (elbow) will start Sunday with the Low-A Tampa Tarpons.
EDGE Analysis
This marks the beginning of Severino's rehab assignment as he works his way back from Tommy John surgery. The buildup he'll require means he's unlikely to return for at least another month, but the fact that he's pitching in games again is very encouraging for the hard-throwing righty and the Yankees.

Severino (elbow) is expected to begin a rehab assignment Sunday, Pete Caldera of The Bergen Record reports.
EDGE Analysis
Severino has been throwing bullpen sessions recently as he works his way back from Tommy John surgery, and he'll throw three simulated innings Monday. If he feels good afterward, the right-hander should return to game action in the minors Sunday. Severino will likely require several rehab starts to build up his workload, but he appears to be trending in the right direction.

Severino (elbow) threw a live bullpen session Wednesday and is close to going on a rehab assignment, Max Goodman of Sports Illustrated reports.
EDGE Analysis
The right-hander has now completed multiple successful bullpen sessions as he works his way back from Tommy John surgery. Though manager Aaron Boone didn't specify when Severino would begin a rehab assignment, he did indicate that the pitcher "is getting close to that point." Assuming Severino doesn't encounter any setbacks, he could make his return to the big leagues sometime in July.

Severino (elbow) is close to pitching in games, Pete Caldera of The Bergen Recordreports.
EDGE Analysis
Severino's latest simulated game was reportedly a huge success, and a notable step in his recovery from Tommy John surgery. The righty will surely require a lot of rehab work to build up a starter's inning load, but there's reason for optimism that he'll return to the Yankees' rotation in the early part of the summer.

Severino (elbow) threw to hitters at the Yankees' player development complex in Tampa, Florida, on Thursday, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
This was Severino's first time throwing to live hitters since undergoing Tommy John surgery in February of 2020. The right-hander faced a group of hitters that included top prospect Jasson Dominguez and reportedly touched 96 mph with his fastball. Manager Aaron Boone indicated that the session went "really well," so it appears that Severino didn't experience any setbacks. He remains on target for a return later this summer.

Severino (elbow) is dealing with a stiff back Wednesday and will throw his live BP on Thursday, Marly Rivera of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Severino was initially expected to face hitters Wednesday for the first time since undergoing Tommy John surgery last February. Outside of Wednesday's minor setback, the right-hander has been progressing well in his recovery in recent weeks and could return to game action around the middle of July.
