The injury bug has torn through the New York Yankees like polio in the early 1900s, it’s unstoppable and there’s nobody to blame. While manager Aaron Boone attempts to quiet the noise and throw nonsensical positivity into the media, there has been a bit of good news on the injury front.
Starting third baseman and youth star Miguel Andujar has achieved the first hurdle in his rehab program – throwing lightly during a game of catch. This might not be breathtaking news but it indicates he will likely avoid major surgery and begin working his way back gradually.
