The Yankees are planning to hand the ball to Masahiro Tanaka on Sunday
against the Blue Jays, clearing the ace right-hander to make his first Major
League start since sustaining a partially torn ulnar collateral ligament in
July.
Tanaka reported no issues after throwing 65 pitches in a simulated game on
Monday against instructional league hitters, and the Yankees believe that
making a turn or two at the big league level will offer Tanaka some peace of
mind as he heads into the offseason.
洋基預定美東時間禮拜日讓田中將大回到大聯盟,對上多倫多藍鳥隊。田中將大禮拜一在
小聯盟的模擬賽一共投了65球,上一次在大聯盟出賽已經是7月8號的事,洋基計畫在季末
前再讓他先發1到2次。
