New York Yankees Prospect Jake Cave Has Arthroscopic Surgery On Knee

According to Shane Hennigan of the Scranton-Times Tribune, New York Yankees outfield prospect Jake Cave had arthroscopic surgery on his left knee and will start the 2017 season on the disabled list.

The Cincinnati Reds selected Cave in the Rule 5 draft in December of 2015 where he almost earned a spot on the Opening Day roster. The Reds, however, returned him to New York, who assigned the lefty to Double-A Trenton.
