The concern has to be that a forearm strain is a precursor to Tommy John surgery. The website of the Yankee team physician, Dr. Christopher Ahmad, states that 20% of pitchers who experience forearm strains will need Tommy John surgery within a year. Again, that's from the Yankees' own team physician.
Volpe makes the team! Now Boone will pencil him in 9th in the order while Hicks bats 7th hitting .200 for about a third of the season.
Did you see the video clips of him in Boone's office and then meeting with his family after? Absolutely incredible.
Yanks looking solid at home but I’ve still got some doubts about the roster construction and the daily shifting lineups.
Such an effing Boone move. German is dealing and has thrown 78 pitches, takes him out because of a bloop double. Easily his weakest part as a manager.
