The New York Yankees continue to struggle with injuries in their rotation as Marcus Stroman has been placed on the injured list following his disastrous outing against the San Francisco Giants.
In his first inning on the mound, Stroman failed to record an out and gave up five runs on four hits, leading to an eventual 9-1 loss. His ERA now stands at 11.57 after just three starts.
After the game, it was revealed that Stroman is dealing with knee inflammation, prompting the Yankees to call up Allan Winans from Triple-A to fill his spot.
In related news, Max Fried has been the only bright spot in the Yankees’ rotation, boasting a respectable 1.56 ERA through his early appearances this season.
