2026 Fantasy Outlook
Headrick closed 2025 on the Yankees' injured list while recovering from a left forearm contusion, but he was able to make seven rehab appearances at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in September and appears to have had a normal offseason. The 28-year-old southpaw will be competing for a spot in the Opening Day bullpen and will likely work in middle relief if he breaks camp with the big club. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a one-year contract with the Yankees in March of 2025.
Notches hold Tuesday
Headrick recorded a hold against the Rangers on Tuesday, walking one batter and allowing one hit while striking out one over a scoreless inning of work.
Analysis
Headrick entered in the seventh inning after Cam Schlittler tossed six scoreless frames for New York. Headrick gave up a leadoff single and issued a two-out walk, but he was able to get out of the frame without allowing any runs by striking out Brandon Nimmo. The southpaw has been seeing higher-leverage work of late -- after notching zero holds through his first 12 appearances of the season, he's proceeded to tally three holds across his past four outings. Headrick seems to be earning manager Aaron Boone's trust by posting a 1.93 ERA, 1.57 WHIP and 15:6 K:BB over 14 frames spanning 16 appearances overall.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Opportunity knocking in 2026?
Manager Aaron Boone expects Headrick to fill a more significant role for the Yankees in 2026, reports Bryan Hoch of MLB.com.
Analysis
The 28-year-old was claimed off waivers by the Yankees in February and posted a 3.13 ERA and 30:7 K:BB during his first year in the Bronx, but he was limited to 17 appearances and finished the season on the IL due to a forearm issue. Headrick should be healthy to begin 2026 given that he had started up a rehab assignment in September, and he appears to be a safe bet to get a spot in the Opening Day bullpen.
