Cole out for at least two months...


Recommended Posts

per ESPN:


Any dreams of a speedy return to the mound for reigning American League Cy Young Award winner Gerrit Cole were dashed Thursday when the New York Yankees moved the right-hander to the 60-day injured list due to elbow inflammation.

On March 16, Cole said he wouldn't throw for three to four weeks in an effort to heal his ailing throwing elbow, telling reporters that nerve irritation and edema were the source of his problem, with rest and recovery the prescription.

 
Cole, 33, pitched just twice this spring, once in a Grapefruit League game on March 1 and then in a simulated game six days later. He subsequently was shut down and underwent medical tests.

According to the comments at MLB trade rumors, he is eligible to come back on May 27. That means he’s going to miss at best(or worst, depending on your viewpoint )eight or nine starts.

piece o’ cake…
