The Gerrit Cole scare appears to be over.

Cole felt “better,” he said, after throwing a bullpen session Friday that lines him up to rejoin the rotation Sunday.

The reigning AL Cy Young winner was scratched from his Tuesday start because of body fatigue.

Given a few extra days to recover — he will pitch Sunday on 10 days rest — Cole said he now feels fine.

There were immediate concerns around the 33-year-old, particularly because he was shut down in spring training and eventually diagnosed with nerve inflammation and edema in his throwing elbow because he was not bouncing back well from his outings.

The hope is that after seven up-and-down starts to begin his season, Cole just needed a breather and this delay will be a one-off.

“That’s what I’m hoping,” Cole said before the Yankees opened a series with the Blue Jays with an 8-5 loss in The Bronx.

Juan Soto fouled a ball off his foot in the third inning and hobbled a bit before trainers and manager Aaron Boone checked on him.

Soto remained in the game.

“It seems like he was able to shake it off,” Boone said of Soto, who went 1-for-4 with a double and a walk. “I think he’s OK.”

Anthony Volpe’s two-run shot in the fifth inning was his 10th of the year and marked his 100th and 101st career RBIs.

One game after DJ LeMahieu’s best performance of the season, the veteran was back on the bench.

The righty-hitting LeMahieu was out of the lineup against righty Kevin Gausman, with lefty-swinging Jazz Chisholm Jr. at third base and lefty Ben Rice at first.

LeMahieu, whose entire season has been a struggle, homered, doubled and drove in six runs Wednesday in Philadelphia, where he was in the lineup against opposing southpaw Cristopher Sanchez.

“Other guys have earned opportunities as well, and Ben Rice has been doing such a good job for us,” Boone said before Chisholm went 0-for-4 and Rice 0-for-2 with two walks. “I certainly deliberated on [sitting LeMahieu] a little bit, but hopefully [Wednesday] is a little bit of a sign of DJ getting it rolling a little bit like he’s capable of.

“There’ll be other spots for him.”

LeMahieu, a two-time batting champion who is hitting just .182, has mostly been relegated to being a late-game defensive replacement who gets spot-starts against lefties.

The Yankees are not expected to see a lefty in this series and are lined up to next see a lefty (the Angels’ Tyler Anderson) on Thursday.

Infielder/outfielder Jahmai Jones, who was designated for assignment last week, cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

Infield J.D. Davis also cleared waivers but elected free agency.
