Yankees hopeful Marcus Stroman’s return is imminent
NY Post
Marcus Stroman received an injection in his knee on Saturday, but the Yankees are hopeful that is the extent of what the right-hander needs to get back on the mound.
Stroman, who landed on the 15-day injured list Saturday with left knee inflammation, got a cortisone shot after an MRI exam revealed swelling but nothing further, according to manager Aaron Boone.
“Hoping it’s not long,” Boone said Sunday morning before a 5-4 loss to the Giants in The Bronx. “The MRI was good, but he had some swelling in there somewhere. Trying to eliminate that, hopefully get him ramped up pretty quick and hopefully it’s something that really helps him moving forward.”
Boone was still unsure whether Stroman was pitching through the injury entering Friday’s start or if he suffered it in the rainy and cold conditions — when he recorded just two outs while giving up five runs on three walks and four hits.
But when watching video back from that start, Boone said he could notice Stroman not finishing his delivery properly on his front (left) leg.
“I think that was due to the knee,” Boone said.
