TAMPA, Fla. -- New York Yankees ace Gerrit Cole is pleased with his comeback progression from a right elbow injury after throwing two, 15-pitch innings in a simulated game on Saturday.

Cole faced minor league hitters on Derek Jeter Field in front of his family and a large gathering of rookie-level players at the Yankees' player development complex in Tampa, Florida.

"We hit all our goals," Cole said. "We did exactly what we wanted to do today. Threw a lot of strikes, so pretty good.
