Luis Gil activated as Yankees make surprise pitching roster decision originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Yankees placed right‑hander Jonathan Loaisiga on the 15‑day injured list Sunday with right mid‑back soreness. It’s a move that cleared the way for Luis Gil’s long‑awaited 2025 season debut, also on Sunday in Miami.

The New York Yankees will have a key starter back in the rotation on Sunday as Luis Gil has been activated to make his season debut against the Miami Marlins.

Luis Gil waited several long months to return to the mound. The New York Yankees’ young right-hander last year became the fourth pitcher in franchise history to be voted AL Rookie of the Year.
