New York Yankees first baseman Anthony Rizzo will be placed on the injured list as he has been experiencing headaches since receiving an epidural last week, manager Aaron Boone announced Tuesday.
Boone had discussed the situation on Monday, via Lou DiPetro of WFAN:
“Rizz is still at home, kind of doctor’s orders to rest, just because he was getting some headaches from the epidural. Back is doing well, but they want him to rest and make sure he’s asymptomatic from any of the headaches. None yesterday, none so far today, and if that’s the case tomorrow, he can come in here Wednesday and start ramping up.
