All hope lost as Yankees sadly announce the departure of…

The Yankees predicted at the start of spring training that Trevino would miss the first two weeks of Grapefruit League games, then return in early March and log plenty of reps prior to his Opening Day start catching Gerrit Cole on March 28 season in Houston.

Nothing’s changed.

By the middle of next week, Trevino might be in the Yankees’ lineup starting a home game on Wednesday against the Rays or Thursday night against the Tigers.

“We’ll see,” manager Aaron Boone said prior to the Yankees’ 8-4 win over the Blue Jays on Friday night.

Trevino made more progress in the afternoon taking batting practice for the first time this spring.

Earlier in the day, Trevino caught Carlos Rodon’s three innings of live BP and went through his the second of three extensive running days.

He passed every test.

No calf discomfort whatsoever.

Trevino is scheduled for a light running day on Saturday and another tough one Sunday.

“That’s his running progression that he needs to get through,” Boone said. “Hopefully he will be in play perhaps some time when we get back from the trip.”

The Yankees play two games on the East Coast of Florida early next week, Monday night against the Marlins in Jupiter and Tuesday afternoon in Port St. Lucie against the Mets.

On those days, Trevino will remain in Tampa working out with Aaron Judge, Juan Soto and other Yankees who will not be on the trip.

“I feel good,” Trevino said. “I’ve got a lot of baseball built up. I’m like a caged warrior. I’m ready to go.”

PERAZA
Boone downplayed Peraza’s shoulder tightness on Tuesday when the injury was announced in the skipper’s pre-game media session.

A few days later, the Yankees were still expecting that the second-year infielder would be back playing soon.

Tuesday’s game against the Mets could be the return date, if Peraza progresses over the next few days.

“I don’t think it’s anything too extreme, but he’s probably not where he needs to be getting it across the diamond,” Boone said. “He’s still feeling a little something in there. He’ll continue to work and we’ll see moving forward.”

Peraza was 0-for-3 with three strikeouts in his only game.

The Venezuelan is competing this spring for a backup infield spot, but his one remaining option could work against him. His competition includes four non-roster infielders with major league experience: Kevin Smith, Josh VanMeter, Jahmai Jones and Jeter Downs.
