The New York Yankees announced today that Jose Trevino is going on the injured list with a right wrist tear. To replace the reigning Platinum Glove winner, general manager Brian Cashman will call up Ben Rortvedt from Triple-A to split the duties with Kyle Higashioka.
The trip to the IL is retroactive to July 18, as Higashioka had already taken over as the starting catcher job over the past couple of games. However, it does not really matter, as Trevino won’t be coming back until 2024. He confirmed to reporters that he will soon undergo season-ending wrist surgery to fix his torn TFCC ligament.
