Yankees injured star Jazz Chisholm provided a bold prediction regarding his potential return date.
Chisholm was placed on the 10-day injured list on August 14 with a left UCL sprain. And while there was some initial concern that he might require elbow surgery, the Yankees received multiple opinions from doctors, who recommended rest and rehab, asHowever, Chisholm spoke to reporters in Detroit prior to the Yankees' latest 3-0 win over the Tigers, saying he hasn’t felt any pain in the elbow since sustaining the injury, and that he should be able to resume swinging a bat within a day or two.
And when asked if it's realistic in his mind that he can return when his 10 days on the IL are up his answer was pretty clear."It's 100% realistic in my mind that at the end of the 10 days I'll be back."If Chisholm were to return at the end of the 10-day period, he would be back way sooner than expected. This would be a significant break for the Yankees, as Chisholm has provided a major spark since joining the club in late-July.
General Manager Brian Cashman acquired Chisholm from the Miami Marlins in exchange for a trio of minor leaguers in catcher Agustin Ramirez, second baseman Jared Serna and shortstop Abrahan Ramirez on July 27 prior to this year’s trade deadline.
