The New York Yankees proudly feature one of the finest bullpens in baseball, claiming the second-best ERA in the MLB at 3.04. Despite an array of injuries impacting the unit, the Bombers persist in discovering reliable assets to bolster a flagging starting rotation.
However, after Domingo German’s ejection during this past week’s game against the Toronto Blue Jays, manager Aaron Boone was compelled to use Ian Hamilton earlier than expected, which unfortunately led to a groin injury.
Hamilton had to leave the game prematurely due to a right groin issue and is expected to be out of action for the next four weeks, thereby leaving the bullpen depleted and understaffed.
