Juan Soto was diagnosed with left forearm inflammation and isn't expected to need a stint on the injured list, manager Aaron Boone said Friday, a day after the New York Yankees' slugger exited a game with soreness.
Soto underwent testing Friday, which revealed the inflammation and no ligament damage in his elbow.
Boone said Soto was day-to-day. He was not in the lineup for Friday night's series opener against the Los Angeles Dodgers in New York, but Boone said he could be available to pinch hit sometime this weekend.
