NEW YORK -- The Yankees are placing Anthony Rizzo on the injured list before Wednesday's doubleheader against the Minnesota Twins, and the team will call up first baseman Ronald Guzman to take his place.
Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Rizzo has been dealing with headaches in recent days and previously was dealing with lingering back issues. Rizzo received an epidural to relieve pain in his back, but the team is unsure whether the headaches and the injection are connected.
"We don't think so based on this, but he had the epidural and now the headaches," Boone said.
