You have to wonder if the Yankees will be fully healthy by the wild-card game.
Life got a lot tougher for the injury-plagued Yankees ... when shortstop Didi Gregorius had to leave the game after two innings because of a bruised left heel.
We are going to see what these Yankees are made of because there is a good chance Gregorius will land on the disabled list, joining Aaron Judge and Gary Sanchez.
Three of the most important Yankees are sidelined, and if Gregorius is out for any length of time, that figures to have huge repercussions because Judge said Sunday he is still waiting on the chip fracture in his wrist to completely heal — and that could take a full six weeks. ...
The Yankees were dreaming when they talked about a three-week timetable for Judge.
Shortstop Didi Gregorius left Sunday's game against the Blue Jays at Yankee Stadium with a bruised left heel after he collided with Toronto first baseman Kendrys Morales in the first inning. ...
The Yankees already have, among others, Aaron Judge, Gary Sanchez and CC Sabathia on the disabled list. On Saturday, catcher Austin Romine took a foul ball off the mask and left the game.
Sunday started with such positive health news. Austin Romine had avoided a concussion and Gary Sanchez was making great progress on his return from a groin injury. ...
An awkward collision at first base left their dynamic shortstop, Didi Gregorius, possibly heading to the disabled list with what the team said is a bruised left heel. ...
The Yankees have an uphill battle ahead of them to keep themselves in the playoff picture and mounting injuries do not help. ... They hold a 3.5-game lead over the Astros and A's, who are in a tie for the AL-West division title, for the top Wild Card spot. ...
The Yankees are just not getting any healthier. ...
The Yankees still do not have a clear picture of when they will get back Judge, whom they initially thought would be swinging a bat by now.
This team is baseball's version of Jenga. One shaky piece and it can all come falling down. ...
[T]here are major issues that won't go away.
Brian Cashman had better find some reinforcements because the Yankees lose a little more talent every day. When Gary Sanchez returns it will be a welcome sight, no matter his .188 batting average. ...
The Yankees need to pick up an outfielder, but refuse to do so. ... The Yankees' fourth outfielder at this moment is Shane Robinson, who looks to be tremendously overmatched and is batting .129.
