Anthony Rizzo is the latest New York Yankees player to test positive for COVID-19, team manager Aaron Boone announced Sunday.
Rizzo, who was acquired by the Yankees from the Chicago Cubs at the trade deadline, is experiencing light symptoms, Boone said, and was placed on the COVID-19 related injury list. Rizzo turned 32 on Sunday and is a cancer survivor.
Catcher Gary Sanchez, and starting pitchers Gerrit Cole and Jordan Montgomery also recently tested positive. That's after Aaron Judge was placed on the list shortly after the All-Star break and a July 15 game was postponed for testing and contact tracing.
