Sports Illustrated | Gary Phillips: The Yankees received a welcome piece of news yesterday, as Jameson Taillon successfully underwent surgery to repair a partially torn tendon in his ankle. Taillon tweeted out that he “feels amazing” and is “ready to dominate the rehab process.” New York original estimated a five-month recovery period, so there is a chance Taillon could return to baseball activity before the end of spring training. He will look to build off his 2021 campaign — during which he made 29 starts, going 8-6 with a 4.30 ERA, 4.43 FIP, and 140 strikeouts in 144.
