Top stories from last week:

• The Yankees headed to Miami for a two-game series following Monday’s off-day. They picked up a 2-1 win Tuesday in 12 innings before suffering a disappointing 9-3 loss Wednesday.
• Following another off-day Thursday, the Yankees went to Baltimore for four games in three days. Luke Voit hit two home runs in Friday’s 7-5 win, then the Yankees swept Saturday’s doubleheader with a 10-3 win in the afternoon and a 5-1 win at night. They finished the series sweep with a 5-3 win Sunday. The Yankees gained 3.5 games on the Red Sox last week.
• Injury Updates: Didi Gregorius (heel) was placed on the 10-day DL with a contusion. Aroldis Chapman (knee) was placed on the 10-day DL with tendinitis. Aaron Judge (wrist) still has not started swinging a bat. Gary Sanchez (groin) has started a minor league rehab assignment and is about a week away. Clint Frazier (post-concussion migraines) could return in September but it is “too early to tell.” David Robertson (shoulder) missed a few days with tenderness but has since returned to action. Anthony Seigler (concussion) is done for the year.
• The Yankees claimed catcher Chris Rabago off waivers from the Rockies. Luis Cessa and Chance Adams were involved in up-and-down moves last week. Both Adams and Justus Sheffield are moving to the bullpen for the stretch run.
• The Orioles approached the Yankees about a potential Adam Jones trade earlier this month. The Yankees passed because they expect Judge to return at some point.
• The 2019 schedule was announced. The Yankees open at home against the O’s on March 28th.
