Didi Gregorius will be out for Opening Day, Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. Gregorius' shoulder will prevent him from baseball activities for two weeks, then he will start a throwing program. Girardi doesn't know yet who will replace Gregorius.
The Yankees received good news and bad news about Didi Gregorius and his injured shoulder today. The good news: Gregorius does not have a serious injury. It’s a shoulder strain and he will be shut down from baseball activities for two weeks. The bad news: Didi will miss Opening Day. Bummer. BryanHoch has the news.
Joe Girardi acknowledged Gregorius may miss all of April because they’re going to be cautious with him, obviously. They won’t try to rush him back or anything like that. It’s better to miss a few games now than many games later. Gregorius will be shut down for two weeks, then he’ll have to get back into game shape before playing.
Gregorius hurt himself making a throw while playing second base in a World Baseball Classic tune-up game in Arizona over the weekend, Girardi told Michael Silverman. The Netherlands clinched a spot in the semifinals last week, and they had a long layoff before last night’s game because they had to travel from Tokyo, so they played an exhibition game to stay sharp.
Cashman: "We pride ourselves on being open-minded and progressive, but I'd like to be cautious too -- especially with a 20-year-old who's never played above A-ball. Despite how good he looks and how mature he appears -- especially with a high-ceiling prospect. Because I don't think it's the right play to close that gap from no Double-A, no Triple-A and then jump somebody to the major-league level when we've got a bunch of other guys to fill an injury need. You usually don't handle your high-end players at 20 years of age that way. It's not something I would advocate."
If it's a long term injury maybe we can pry Stephen Drew away from the Nationals. He has always been so reliable for the Yankees. What do you think Big?
He's my idol. When I grow up I want to be just like him !
