Yankees' Jose Trevino: Getting start at catcher in Game 3
Rotowire
Trevino will start at catcher Monday in Game 3 of the World Series against the Dodgers, Buster Olney of ESPN reports.
Right-hander Walker Buehler will be on the mound for the Dodgers, but it will be the right-handed hitting Trevino behind the plate rather than the lefty-batting Austin Wells. It's the second start this postseason for Trevino, who is 1-for-3 with an RBI single so far during the playoffs.
Yankees' Jose Trevino: Will start against most lefties
Rotowire
Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Tuesday that Trevino will start against "most" left-handers moving forward, Max Goodman of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.
It looks to be a natural platoon situation at catcher, with Austin Wells handling the starts against right-handers. Boone did add that Wells will see the occasional start versus lefties, including likely being in the lineup Wednesday against a southpaw. Trevino is in Tuesday's lineup against Guardians lefty Matthew Boyd.

Yankees' Jose Trevino: Swipes bag in return
Rotowire
Trevino went 1-for-3 with a double, a stolen base and a walk in Friday's 3-0 victory versus the Tigers.
Trevino was activated from the injured list during New York's off day Thursday after missing over a month due to a quad injury. The backstop was given a start Friday and walked in his first plate appearance, and he followed the free pass with a surprising steal of second base. It was his first theft since 2022 and just his fourth over seven big-league campaigns. Trevino will likely work in a backup role behind Austin Wells now that he is back in action.

Yankees' Jose Trevino: Ahead of schedule
Rotowire
Trevino (quadriceps) did some running and played catch Thursday, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.
Trevino sustained a Grade 2 strain in his left hamstring July 12, but he has been progressing well since. He played catch with manager Aaron Boone on Thursday and has been able to do some light running. Still, Trevino isn't expected to be in action any time soon. Austin Wells should continue to handle most of the Yankees' catching duties.

Yankees' Jose Trevino: Nursing Grade 2 quad strain
Rotowire
Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Sunday that Trevino is going to miss "some time" after the catcher was diagnosed with a Grade 2 quadricep strain, Brendan Kuty of The Athletic reports.
Trevino was placed on the 10-day injured list Saturday with the quad strain, but the Yankees didn't know the severity of the injury until he was sent in for an MRI. Boone didn't offer up a precise timeline for Trevino's return, but the 31-year-old backstop looks safe to rule out for multiple weeks, if not months. Trevino's absence should clear the way for Austin Wells to serve as the Yankees' clear No. 1 catcher, though the right-handed-hitting Carlos Narvaez may spell the lefty-hitting Wells when the Yankees face left-handed pitchers.
