The Yankees announced a pair of roster moves on Sunday morning, reinstating starter Luis Gil from the 60-day IL and placing reliever Jonathan Loaisiga on the 15-day IL with right mid back tightness.
Gil, the 2024 AL Rookie of the Year, is set to make his season debut on Sunday after being sidelined up to this point with a right lat strain.
The 27-year-old last pitched Tuesday night for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, allowing one earned run on three hits while striking out seven over 4.1 innings.
Overall, Gil made four rehab outings, allowing nine earned runs over 14.1 innings.
Loaisiga, meanwhile, hasn’t quite looked as effective this season after missing just about all of the 2024 campaign due to an internal brace procedure to repair the UCL in his right elbow.
In 29.2 innings this season, Loaisiga has pitched to a 4.25 ERA, having already allowed a career-high seven home runs.
