Yankees’ veteran pitcher returns to camp amid trade controversy

Marcus Stroman finally reported to Yankees spring training on Friday, putting to rest any speculation about his absence over the past few days.

While manager Aaron Boone had acknowledged earlier in the week that Stroman’s arrival had been slightly delayed, he didn’t express much concern, noting that he expected the veteran to be in camp soon. Now that Stroman is back with the team, any lingering questions about his status can take a backseat—for now.

Boone Eases Concerns, But Trade Rumors Linger

Boone’s comments on Thursday suggested a level of urgency in getting Stroman into camp, but he stopped short of making it seem like an issue.
