Starting rehab assignment Sunday Voit (oblique) will begin a rehab assignment Sunday that is expected to last about a week, Lindsey Adler of The Athletic reports.

Impact The first baseman has increased his activity of late, including taking more swings, as he works his way back from a Grade 2 oblique strain. He is set to get into a handful of minor-league contests before potentially rejoining the big club in about a week. Voit's return should provide a tangible boost to a Yankees team that has lost seven of its past 11 games.

Nearing rehab assignment Voit (oblique) could begin a rehab assignment as early as Sunday, Kristie Ackert of the New York Daily News reports.

Impact Voit has been sidelined with a Grade 2 oblique strain since May 26, but he recently increased his volume of swings and could return to game action in the minors in the near future. Manager Aaron Boone said Thursday that the 30-year-old could rejoin the Yankees after about a week of rehab games, per Marly Rivera of ESPN.com.

Taking more swings Voit (oblique) is increasing his volume of swings and could begin a rehab assignment next week, the Associated Press reports.

Impact Voit has been on the 10-day injured list since May 26 with a Grade 2 right oblique strain, but he appears to be progressing toward a return. He would likely need a few minor-league rehab games to get back up to speed, which puts his target date to rejoin the big club at sometime in late June. Voit has played in only 12 games this year as a result of this injury and knee surgery that delayed the start of his season.

Working toward rehab assignment Manager Aaron Boone mentioned June 15 as a potential date for Voit (oblique) to begin a rehab assignment, Pete Caldera of The Bergen Record reports.

Impact Voit participated in some fielding work Friday and is continuing to progress toward a mid-June rehab assignment. The slugger, who was placed on the 10-day IL on May 26, will likely need to make multiple appearances in the minors before he's ready to rejoin the Yankees lineup. With all that being considered, he remains on track for a late-June return.

"He's doing well...He's trending in a very good direction," Boone stated.

Likely out multiple weeks Manager Aaron Boone said Sunday that Voit (oblique) is expected to be out for at least a few weeks, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

Impact While Boone wasn't especially specific in providing a timeline for the slugger's return, it appears clear that Voit will miss more than the minimum 10 days as he recovers from the oblique issue. Look for Mike Ford and DJ LeMahieu to continue to get the bulk of the time at first base in Voit's absence.
