Slade Heathcott (shoulder) is dealing with soreness, Mason Williams (shoulder) is throwing and hitting, and Domingo German (elbow) has resumed throwing bullpens.
- Brian Cashman said the Yankees continue to look for “potential castoffs” to round out the roster at the end of Spring Training. They offered Ruben Tejada a minor league deal before he signed with the Cardinals.
