The New York Yankees mostly escaped spring training without any significant injuries, but the team held out Luke Voit from Saturday’s contest due to a partially torn meniscus that will require surgery.
At 30 years old, repairing his meniscus in his left knee will likely keep them out for a minimum of three weeks, as manager Aaron Boone stated that Voit has been playing through the injury he suffered during camp, but swelling forced him to undergo an MRI which exposed the tear. Getting it cleaned up now and ensured his health for the rest of the regular season is justified, especially with a few days left of training.
