“I felt good,” Cortes said. “I'm happy to get out of there healthy and feeling good. I worked all of my pitches; cutter, changeup and slider. I felt like I had a good command out of out of everything today and just looking forward for my next one.”
Cortes said that he has one more rehab start scheduled for Friday, and his next step after that is yet to be determined -- much like with the ongoing rehab plan for Aaron Judge, the organization is trying not to look too far into the future.
But Cortes believes that he could rejoin the Yankees when eligible to be activated from the 60-day IL, which would be in the first week of August -- just in time, potentially, for big showdowns against the Rays and Astros.
