Tuesday: Sanchez had his surgery today, the Yankees announced. It was performed by team doctor Dr. Ahmad in New York and the Yankees say it went “as expected.” Get well soon, Gary.
Wednesday: Another important Yankee is having offseason surgery. Brian Cashman told reporters at the GM Meetings tonight that Gary Sanchez is having debridement surgery on his left shoulder, and he’s expected to be ready for Opening Day. The surgery comes with a three-month recovery, so it will cut significantly into Gary’s offseason routine. Sucks.
“We could continue with the conservative treatment and play it out, hope that it would get better, but we’re going to go the other route and just get ahead of it,” Cashman said (video link).
