Dellin Betances Slated To Receive MRI

By Jeff Todd | April 12, 2019 at 4:07pm CDT

Rehabbing Yankees reliever Dellin Betances is not progressing on quite the timeline that might have been hoped. Manager Aaron Boone said today that a recent simulated game “didn’t go great,” as MLB.com’s Bryan Hoch was among those to tweet. Betances is now heading back to New York to undergo an MRI on his shoulder.

Previously diagnosed with an impingement after experiencing a worrying spring velocity drop, Betances had been hoping to rest a bit and then ramp right back up. It seems now that the down time did not fully resolve the issues in the joint, which makes for no shortage of uncertainty for both player and team.

The Yankees have plenty of options to fill in for Betances and the resources to add more relievers if need be. But the club is already dealing with multiple injuries in other areas of the roster. At this stage of the season, at least, it can’t hope to find a reliever of Betances’s quality for anything approaching a reasonable price.

Things are even more concerning for Betances himself, as the big righty is playing out his final season of arbitration eligibility. High velocity and durability have been among his two biggest calling cards over a thus-far stellar career. Now, the 31-year-old will need to get healthy and regain the arm speed that has allowed him to post a 2.36 ERA with 14.6 K/9 over 381 total MLB innings.. If and when he manages that, there’ll still be some newfound uncertainty surrounding his health outlook.

    And this is why people shouldn’t make fun of other teams injuries (the ones Te angels have had in recent years) as your team can be hit by them at any notice 🙁

    Where is south beach bully and other blind cash apologists who lambasted those of us who questioned seriously cash’s offseason?????

    happ stinks
    Gardy stinks
    Cc stinks
    Tulo stinks
    Let’s not forget bird, tauchman and kahnle

    Corbin is good
    Harper is great
    MachAdo is great

    Cash is a genius- c’mon arrogant defenders where are you now??

      In seclusion until they get to .500 or until Bird can stay above .180 for a week.

      “durrr let me bring up how cheap depth signings are not as good as $300MM players im such a genius and cashmen is a dummE!!”
      Why do people try to pretend that the cheap depth signings is the only thing going for the Yankees and then use it against them? Newsflash! Every team has bad players on it.

      Besides, no one said that Corbin, Harper, and Machado were bad players anyway. And lets be honest while we’re at it, no one, including you, foresaw 10 starting caliber players hitting the IL for a lengthy period of time to start the season. CC just had a good game too. For a SP not even making 10MM (pretty much the minimum price for a SP) you cant ask for more. Tulo was acquired for 500k. Who cares if he does bad? You lose nothing if does bad and just move on. Kahnle has been looking better in comparison to last season (his MPH is up) and was a complimentary piece to a trade the Yankees have won thus far. The only good point you have made is about Happ. I would have rather ran with German than Happ.

      I just dont get why people like you act like the Yankees are nothing but Tuachman, Happ, Bird, Kahnle, (insert depth player here who isnt a significant piece of the roster), etc.
