The Yankees were supposed to have their ace, Luis Severino, in action on Tuesday, but the righty was shut down shortly before the game. Apparently, he wasn’t feeling quite right during his warm ups and the training staff decided to take him for some tests. The good news for New York is that they didn’t find anything overly serious that is expected to keep him out long-term. Instead, they found some inflammation in his shoulder and have shut him down for a couple of weeks. As a result, he’s highly unlikely to be ready for Opening Day.
