Around the Empire: Yankees news - 5/14/21

MLB.com | Bryan Hoch: Yankees shortstop Gleyber Torres, held out of Wednesday’s lineup, tested positive for COVID-19 and is the eighth member of the team (between coaches, players and staffers) to do so. He is asymptomatic. The Bombers placed him on the COVID-19 list and recalled Miguel Andújar in a corresponding move. Torres was fully vaccinated and had already contracted the virus in December. There’s a chance that he might not be able to be recalled for 10 days, though that’s unclear at the moment.

ESPN | Marly Rivera via Twitter: After waking up with a stiff back on Wednesday, Luis Severino delayed his live batting practice session, but he completed it on Thursday.
