Rafael Soriano will go for an MRI on his right elbow tomorrow, Yankee manager Joe Girardi said after the Yanks’ 3-1 win over the Royals. Soriano’s absence raised a few eyebrows this evening as David Robertson threw the 7th and Joba dominated the 8th, and Girardi said that Soriano was “a little tender…a little bit sore.” The Yanks’ manager said that after speaking with team physician Dr. Christopher Ahmad, Soriano decided to go for a “precautionary” MRI. “He didn’t feel good today,” Girardi said.
After Girardi’s presser, Soriano, who last pitched on Sunday, said he has been sore for two weeks but said he felt “fine.” Soriano has had two surgeries on his right elbow and wants to get a clean bill of health before moving forward. We will, of course, follow this story closely.
