Noteworthy items during the Yankees’ Grapefruit League action Monday:

Cody Poteet and Cody Morris, two starting depth candidates with minor league options, combined to toss four scoreless innings with six strikeouts and two walks during the Yankees’ 9-2 win over the Twins at Steinbrenner Field.

Juan Soto came within a few feet of homering in a second straight game. Instead, he had to settle for a two-run double.

Infield prospect Jorbit Vivas continued to make his impact felt and catch Aaron Boone’s attention. The second baseman came off the bench to hit a home run for the second time in as many games, flashing some power for a hitter better known for his bat-to-ball skills. “He’s interesting,” Boone said. “Excited to see more of him.” Vivas is expected to see time at third base later this week.

Clarke Schmidt will make his Grapefruit League debut against the Rays in Port Charlotte, Fla., at 1:05 p.m.
