Well, the Kendrys Morales experiment continues to be interesting. Let’s go with interesting. The Yankees announced today that they put Morales on the 10-day IL, retroactive to 6/12. He has a left calf strain. They’ve called up Nestor Cortes Jr. and Mike Tauchman as corresponding roster moves.
Morales is hitting .194/.313/.253 (64 wRC+) on the year. The Yanks called up two players because they sent both Chance Adams (26th man for the doubleheader) and Stephen Tarpley back to AAA two days ago.

I didn’t realize glaciers could get calf strains. He runs like he’s giving David Wells a piggyback to first base. I liked the signing at the time…it was a “what the hell” signing. That said: Stanton should be back next week (assuming he doesn’t get a hangnail or varicose veins or a strained lat in the next few days)

LOL. At some point the Yankees will look at their conditioning/training staff to assess why this stuff keeps happening right?

Our long national nightmare is (kind of) over.
