3 years agoNew York Yankees relief pitcher Aroldis Chapman (elbow) was placed on the 10-day injured list with left elbow inflammation Saturday. Chapman endured a shaky month of June but has since rebounded, allowing just one run while converting all seven save chances since July 20. The veteran experienced a slight dip in velocity in his last appearance on Thursday, which is perhaps related to the issue with his throwing elbow. It's undoubtedly a blow to the Yankee bullpen, though the club has several arms that can step up, like Chad Green, Jonathan Loaisiga, and Zack Britton. Expect the team to go with some combination of those three in the ninth during Chapman's absence, with Green and Loaisiga the most appealing options for fantasy.--Tim Capurso
