Yankees’ Jazz Chisholm not worried about oblique issue as Aaron Boone takes cautious view
NY Post
BALTIMORE — Jazz Chisholm Jr. insists he is not concerned about his oblique, or as he and the Yankees initially called it, his flank discomfort that forced him to leave Tuesday’s game in the top of the first inning.
But an MRI exam on Thursday back in New York will be the ultimate judge of that.
At least for now, after a 15-3 win over the Orioles at Camden Yards, Chisholm was mostly able to laugh off the details of the injury scare after tweaking his side on his first swing of the night.
“I’m really not as concerned as everybody else,” Chisholm said. “I feel pretty good. I’ve torn my oblique before so I know it’s not torn or anything. I can cough without any pain. It was just to be cautious not to try to overdo it.
“I’d rather take two to three days off than six weeks.”
Aaron Boone took a more cautious approach, indicating he had some fear that it could lead to a stint on the injured list.

Suddenly, someone had hit a rewind button and everyone had been transported back seven months. It was early spring instead of late fall, it was broiling hot outside the arena walls and not freezing cold. Everyone was back at TD Garden. There were 19,156 frenzied fans on their feet begging for blood, poised for the kill.
