The New York Yankees continue to struggle with injuries, as Carlos Rodon faces another setback and valuable bullpen asset Lou Trivino undergoes Tommy John surgery, cutting his 2023 season short.
The Yankees were hoping Lou Trivino would be a key piece this year:
Trivino performed exceptionally well for the Yankees after being acquired in the Frankie Montas trade at last summer’s deadline. He had a 6.47 ERA with the Oakland Athletics over 32 innings but improved to a 1.66 ERA across 21.2 innings wearing the pinstripes. While his strikeouts diminished, his left-on-base percentage surged to 83.
