Around the Empire: Yankees news - 6/20/17

MLB.com | Bryan Hoch: The Yankees got the worst of news yesterday. Their number one prospect, Gleyber Torres, will have to undergo Tommy John surgery due to a torn ulnar collateral ligament in his left elbow. The only silver lining is that this is his non-throwing elbow. Regardless, Gleyber will be out for the remainder of the year. The Yankees are hopeful that he will return at the beginning of spring training in 2018.

New York Post | Ken Davidoff: With Torres out for the year, a lot of Yankee fans had their dreams of him replacing Chase Headley this year crushed.
