Yankees Get Lagrange News
During their series with the White Sox, the Yankees got an update on Carlos Lagrange.
Gary Phillips of NY Daily News Sports wrote: “Carlos Lagrange has resumed throwing, and ahead of schedule. The #Yankees said on July 3 that he’d be shut down for approximately 6 weeks after suffering a capsular sprain in his right shoulder. Obviously, he’s too early in his rehab to have any impact on the Yanks’ bullpen deadline plans. Brian Cashman said before the All-Star break it will be a “close call” if Lagrange can help before the end of the season.”
Lagrange (who is 23) is a very notable prospect within their organization.
