The Yankees were hit with a double whammy yesterday. They lost Giancarlo Stanton to a biceps strain and Miguel Andujar to a “small” labrum tear. Stanton got hurt taking a swing and Andujar got hurt diving back into third base. Once CC Sabathia’s suspension ends tonight and he’s placed on the injured list tomorrow, the Yankees will have ten players on the shelf. The season is four games old! Good gravy. Anyway, let’s get to some thoughts.
1. The Andujar injury is brutal. Stanton’s a great player and an important Yankee, but he pulled a muscle and is expected back in a few weeks.
