ImpactLoaisiga was placed on the Yankees' 60-day IL to start the season. It was initially diagnosed as a significant right elbow strain, but further tests revealed a torn UCL. The silver lining for Loaisiga is that he won't need to undergo Tommy John surgery, but the 29-year-old is looking at a recovery time period of 10-to-12 months. It's another blow to the Yankees' bullpen, with six players, including Loaisiga, on the injured list.
