Chavez strains back during rehab

Eric Chavez strained his back rehabbing from his foot injury, a setback that will keep him on the shelf even longer than expected. It’s unclear when he’ll be able to come back now, it depends on the severity of the strain of course. Might be time for the Yankees to look for a left-handed hitter off the bench, no?

Eric Chavez is the Bob Sanders of baseball.

Every commentator says “if he can just stay healthy!”

There is no way he can stay healthy. Which is a shame.

They already have a lefty on the bench, his name is Brett Gardner.

  I was being sarcastic. I think Gardner’s as awesome as anyone, I probably overrate him if anything.

Can’t say I wasn’t expecting another injury like this, but I really wanted to believe that he could hold it together being a bench player for the Yankees.
