New York Yankees Reliever Inching Closer to Rehab Assignment

According to New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone, Zack Britton threw a bullpen session and is close to beginning a rehab assignment.

This is big news, as Britton has missed all the 2022 season after having UCL surgery. It was unlikely that he would return during it due to the recovery timeline, but this development has provided more optimism on that front.
