Yankees investigating: Something is off with Luis Severino injury

Right now, the only thing the Yankees and Luis Severino can agree on is that he’s got a Grade 2 lat strain and won’t be back in the rotation until July at the earliest.

Severino was at Yankee Stadium on Wednesday, a day after he met with general manager Brian Cashman, as the team tries to determine how the right-hander went from seemingly making good progress recovering from the rotator-cuff inflammation that sidelined him during spring training, and into the early part of the regular season, to being shut down with a “significant” strain of the latissimus muscle on his right side.
