Carlos Lagrange injury recovery and Yankees prospect status

Overview

New York Yankees pitching prospect Carlos Lagrange has begun his return to competitive play following a hiatus caused by a right shoulder capsular sprain sustained in late June. On September 16, Lagrange pitched one scoreless inning for the Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders, recording two strikeouts and reaching a peak fastball velocity of 102 mph.

As the Yankees prepare for the Wild Card series, the organization is evaluating Lagrange for a potential postseason roster spot. While manager Aaron Boone indicated that Lagrange is not yet available for regular-season games due to his recent return to live throwing, his high-velocity profile is being monitored to provide relief options for the bullpen. If selected, Lagrange would make his Major League debut during the playoffs.
