From Bryan Hoch:
The Yankees are dealing with another potential injury concern in their starting rotation, as right-hander Clarke Schmidt was scratched from a scheduled Grapefruit League start against the Blue Jays on Monday due to soreness in his pitching shoulder.
Schmidt had initially been announced as the Yanks’ scheduled starter for Sunday’s 4-3 loss to the Pirates at George M. Steinbrenner Field, a start that instead went to right-hander Cam Schlittler.
Are you fucking KIDDING me with this shit?!
There are no tests scheduled for him at the moment, so hopefully it’s not a huge deal, but, well, holy shit!
Just fuse the two guys together, you could have a healthy Clam Schmittler.
We don’t need no stinkin’ starting pitching.
But at least the offense is bad, and Stanton is hurt, too!
Joey Gallo is a pitcher now. He could be our Ohtani.
If he doesn’t get tested, he can’t be diagnosed with anything bad. Pretty smart move. They shouldn’t have sent Cole for tests either. they’d still be the favorites to win the AL.
