The Yankees
placed Chad Green on the injured list with a strained right elbow on
Saturday and the stalwart reliever could be headed for surgery.
Before
the Yankees opened a series with the Chicago White Sox, manager Aaron
Boone said Green was getting other opinions before making a final
decision. Green was injured during Thursday’s loss in Baltimore, and
before Friday’s rainout Boone said the strain is a significant one.
This
season, Green is 1-1 with a 3.00 ERA in 14 appearances. Since becoming
one of New York’s high-leverage relievers in 2017, he has a 2.96 ERA in
260 appearances. Last season, Green was 10-7 with a 3.12 ERA in 67
appearances when he struck out 99 hitters in 83 2/3 innings.
“He’s
on that very short list of outstanding relievers in our sport,” Boone
said. “He’s been so consistent, such a rock for us. He’s just a
consistent pitcher, a person. Just so reliable and an important part of
our team, that room. So it’s definitely tough.”
To
replace Green, Ron Marinaccio was recalled from Triple-A
Scranton/Wilkes Barre for his third stint with the Yankees. In two prior
times with the team, he had an 11.25 ERA in four appearances.
