Yankees Claim Schreiber Off Waivers; Ohtani's Pitching Future Remains Unclear

The New York Yankees have added right-handed pitcher John Schreiber to their roster, claiming him off waivers from the Kansas City Royals. Schreiber, a graduate of Carlson High School, will join the Yankees' bullpen as they continue their season. This move comes as the Yankees assess their pitching depth and look to bolster their relief corps.

Meanwhile, Shohei Ohtani's highly anticipated return to pitching this season remains uncertain. The Los Angeles Dodgers star is reportedly unlikely to pitch again in 2026, and his participation in the outfield is also being closely monitored. The Dodgers are navigating these player updates as they push through a critical part of their schedule, with other players like Mookie Betts showing recent offensive improvements.
