New York Yankees News/Rumors: The truth about Gio Urshela’s elbow surgery

The New York Yankee’s third baseman Gio Urshela had surgery to remove a bone chip from his throwing arm. I was announced that he would be away from the team for up to three months and would miss part of the 2021 spring training at George M. Steinbrenner Field training facility. Many fans wonder why, like James Paxton last year, wait until the last moment to have surgery that will impact the upcoming season.

Urshela was bothered by his throwing arm for much of the pandemic-shortened Yankee season. He was placed on the 10-day injured list with a bone spur in his right elbow on Sept.
