Yankees Place Tommy Kahnle On IL, Recall Jordan Montgomery

By Jeff Todd | July 31, 2020 at 9:20pm CDT

9:20pm: Kahnle will “likely” require Tommy John surgery, Jon Heyman of MLB Network tweets.

5:03pm: The Yankees have announced a pair of roster moves in advance of tonight’s game. Righty Tommy Kahnle was moved to the 10-day injured list with what the team termed a “right ulnar collateral ligament injury.” He’ll be replaced by southpaw Jordan Montgomery.

That’s a worrisome addition to earlier news on Kahnle, who had previously been described as suffering from forearm tightness. The reliever was slated to undergo an MRI and visit team physician Dr. Chris Ahmad.

Soon to turn 31, Kahnle had seemed primed to occupy an important role in the Yanks’ pen in 2020. After a rough 2018 showing, he bounced back last season by throwing 61 1/3 innings of 3.67 ERA ball with 12.9 K/9 and 2.9 BB/9.

Montgomery is moving in precisely the other direction. The 27-year-old has been limited to eight appearances over the past two seasons owing to Tommy John surgery. He’s now hoping to regain the promising trajectory he was on before the elbow woes arose.

      Lol

      Tommy Tight Pants! A poster at RAB dubbed him that and then Mr Axisa hijacked the hell out of it.

      Real bummer about Kahnle though. He’s supposed to be a pretty important arm in the pen. Maybe (hopefully?) it’s “just” a strained flexor mass like Andrew Miller had.

      I don’t think this is a continuation of last year. I think it falls under; “pitchers, man”. Bummer either way, though.
