Early on in the season, third baseman Miguel Andujar was one of many Yankees to go down with an injury. Unfortunately, Andujar’s right labrum tear was a little more concerning than the rest of his teammates’ injuries, given that it threatened season-ending surgery. Coming off a season in which he finished second in the Rookie of the Year voting, an award some fans thought he should have won, this looked at a glance like a potentially season-altering loss for the Yankees.
Luckily, unlike some of his other teammates, Andujar’s progression through this injury has only been positive.
