According to Jack Curry, Bryan Mitchell is going to miss a minimum of three months with a fractured left big toe. The Yankees have since confirmed the injury, but they didn’t provide a timetable. Mitchell will see a specialist tomorrow and it’s possible he will need surgery.
Mitchell, who was named to the Opening Day roster earlier this week, hurt himself covering first base in yesterday’s game. It was initially called a sprain, but apparently tests showed more damage than expected. Rough.
More to come.
