The Yankees didn't hit a home run yesterday while the Twins hit one (Cruz) to close the gap to 305-304 heading into the final day.

Aaron Hicks will undergo Tommy John surgery on his right elbow and is expected to be sidelined for 8-10 months. The earliest we can expect to see Hicks return would be July 2020.

Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports that Larry Rothschild is out as Yankees' pitching coach.

ESPN's Jeff Passan reports that the Yankees and Aroldis Chapman have completed a new contract that will keep the closer in New York.

Passan says that another year and $18 million will be added onto Chapman's two-year, $30 million deal to keep the closer from exercising his opt-out clause.

Chapman will be 32 years old next season.

James Paxton out until July with back surgery.

James Paxton out until July with back surgery.

Dammit, I JUST traded for him Monday. This is what I get for pushing for a trade for an injury prone pitcher in February. I gave two top 50 high upside prospects for the bum. Why didn't he have this done in November?!

[SlideRule]

It's that damn bald eagle's fault, isn't it!?

Uh-oh Severino. Luis Severino was scratched from a scheduled bullpen session on Thursday and has been shut down due to right forearm soreness.

Uh-oh Severino. Luis Severino was scratched from a scheduled bullpen session on Thursday and has been shut down due to right forearm soreness.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone told reporters that Severino will be away from the team for three days so that he can see a "number of specialists" in New York.

Haha, close!


Really though, Montgomery, Loaisiga, Michael King, and Deivi Garcia become interesting.

MLBTR: A pair of MRIs and a CT scan have all come back negative, general manager Brian Cashman told reporters (video link via MLB.com). For now, Severino has been placed on a new anti-inflammatory and will be reevaluated in a few days’ time. No new tests have been scheduled or recommended, according to Cashman.

But he's still heading back to NY to meet with more specialists and do more tests, so I think this news was premature.

Is Domingo German even worth a late round flier?

The guy who owns him is offering him for any draft pick. In our rules, he's locked in for 2020 and 2021 unless cut, with affordable options in 2022 and 2023.
