With Masahiro Tanaka set to miss a start, this is another glaring reminder that this Yankee rotation has never been healthy from opening day. It started with Ivan Nova rehabbing from Tommy John, another Tanaka scare, followed by a Michael Pineda DL stint, then CC Sabathia with a potential career-ending injury, and ending with a season-ending Nathan Eovaldi elbow injury. Despite all these injuries, the Yankees have stayed in the race, and have shown a characteristic of a certain superhero played by Hugh Jackman.
If you didn’t know, Hugh Jackman plays Wolverine in The X-Men movie franchise.
