Luke Voit Placed On Injured List
3 years agoThe New York Yankees have placed first baseman Luke Voit (knee) on the 10-day injured list Thursday, according to the team. Voit experienced left knee inflammation during Wednesday's game and was taken out early as a precaution. He was expected to avoid an IL stint, which clearly isn't the case. Voit has had a disappointing year and hasn't been able to replicate the power stroke he found last season. During an injury-filled campaign, he's slashing .239/.328/.437 with 11 HRs over 68 games. With the season coming to a close, he won't return and isn't a guarantee to appear in the playoffs. The Yankees have recalled right-hander Albert Abreu in a corresponding move.
