With the start of the ALDS just one day away, the New York Yankees received fantastic injury news that will undoubtedly help them succeed in the playoffs. While it came down to a near a game-time decision, Edwin Encarnacion will be available for the postseason and starting catcher Gary Sanchez will return as well.
The New York Yankees have had incredibly bad luck with injuries:
The team has been decimated by injuries the entire 2019 campaign, setting an MLB record with 30 players on the injured list. They nearly started their first postseason series against the Minnesota Twins without two influential players in Sanchez and Encarnacion.
