Just another day at the office for the New York Yankees. Every day there is someone hurt. Every day there is a diagnosis and every day players either come back to further aggravate their injury or they disappear after seeing Dr. James Andrews. The latest news comes out about our old friend Boone Logan, or as I refer to him, "I wish he was Clay Rapada."
Anyway, Boone Logan had a visit with Dr. Andrews, you remember that, right? We wrote about it in GUESS WHERE BOONE LOGAN IS GOING?
Turns out Logan has a bone spur in his elbow. According to Andy McCullough of the Star Ledger, " The examination lasted five minutes, Yankees reliever Boone Logan said,
long enough to assuage his fears by diagnosing the problem with his left
elbow. A CT-scan conducted by Dr. James Andrews on Monday revealed a
bone spur in the back of his left elbow. Logan expects to undergo
surgery in the offseason, but plans to pitch again this season."
So what does it all mean? To me, personally, if he pitches again and isn't effective, why pitch him again? It shows me the Yankees are out of options and while I'm no doctor, I can tell you that the piling up of injury is very telling in this Yankee organization right now. It's something that needs to be examined quite closely... and we will, soon enough here at BYB.
Give Boone credit for wanting to come back, but I'd be lying if I didn't tell you that in the back of my mind, I'd love Cesar Cabral to chloroform the guy moments before he attempts to take the mound. I just don't trust Boone out there... I don't trust him healthy, what makes you think I trust him with a bone spur?
Stay tuned.
