The New York Yankees do not seem to take a break, because the Bronx bombers were confronted with another injury fear during the 6-5 loss of the team for the Toronto Blue Jays on Monday.
During the game, Veteran -first Honkman Paul Goldschmidt left the game early to complain about a back issue. He was removed from the game in the third inning by manager Aaron Boone.
Yankees fans took the training staff with another injury concern to a player. The team is already without Luis Gil before the start of the season because of a LAT injury and cy Young winner Gerrit Cole, who is out for the 2025 season after undergoing Tommy John operation this month.

“Throw the training staff in prison,” wrote a fan.
“Brian Cashman has really built the most vulnerable schedule in the history of MLB,” wrote Another fan.
“Fire that fuc **** training staff,” wrote Another angry fan.
However, some fans tried to stay positive after the veteran -Slugger reportedly felt “great” after his early exit on Monday.
“I always say it is best to play injured during the meaningless games,” wrote a fan.
“Then he started saying that he was doing well and laughed at the idea of missing the opening day.”
Paul Goldschmidt gives a positive update about his injury after an early exit of the spring training game
With the opening day on just a few days away for the Yankees, another serious injury to the Hitting Line-up could cause problems for the number two of last year’s World Series. The veteran First Honkman, however, shared a positive update after the Blue Jays game.
“My back has just been a bit painful, so he just made the decision to stop there after three innings,” said Goldschmidt. “I can play a few innings; I could probably have played the whole game. In the spring training you just try to be smart. This was probably a time [when] It is not necessary to penetrate something and make it more painful. “
The Yankees are already without reigning ALCS MVP Giancarlo Stanton before the start of the season and they could use the presence of Paul Goldschmidt in the Line -up.
If the experienced Slugger is unable to make the opening day schedule, the Yankees could turn to Catcher/First Honkman Ben Rice, who smoked his fourth home run of spring training on Monday against the Blue Jays.
