Yankees manager Aaron Boone implied Wednesday that Headrick (forearm) is fully healthy for the start of spring training, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports. Headrick closed the past season 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 Yankees' Opening Day bullpen and will likely work in middle relief if he breaks camp with the big club.

Beginning assignment Thursday
Headrick (forearm) will begin a rehab assignment Thursday at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. A bruised forearm has kept Headrick on the injured list since mid-August, but he's now been cleared to begin playing in minor-league games in preparation for his return to the Bronx. The 27-year-old sports a 3.13 ERA and 1.04 WHIP through 23 innings with the Yankees this year and should claim a middle-relief role in their bullpen once healthy.
Lands on injured list
The Yankees placed Headrick on the 15-day injured list Tuesday, retroactive to Aug. 16, due to a left forearm contusion. It's unclear when Headrick sustained the injury, as he hasn't pitched since Wednesday against the Twins. The left-hander will be eligible to be reinstated Aug. 31, though it's unclear if he's expected to be healthy by that point.
