Got some bad news folks, Gary Sanchez’s season is likely over due to a broken finger. He left Thursday’s game in the fifth inning, so maybe he got hit by a foul tip or errant back swing or something. If he is done, he finishes the season with a .364 wOBA and 17 homers in 343 plate appearances, which is pretty damn good for an 18-year-old kid in full season ball.
In other news, here’s video of Bryce Harper’s walk-off homer off Ryan Pope and Double-A Trenton last night (2:05 mark). That is no cheapie my friends. And finally, Josh Romanski was sent from Trenton back down to High-A Tampa as Kei Igawa was activated off the DL.

Alex Rodriguez, DH: 0 for 3, 1 R, 1 BB, 2 K – he was supposed to play third today, but that was changed and not even Joe Girardi knows why … he’s going to do some informal workouts tomorrow, so I guess that means he won’t play in a game

Ravel Santana, CF: 1 for 3, 2 R, 1 HR, 1 RBI, 1 BB, 1 K, 1 CS – very bad news: he left the game with what was described as a “brutal” ankle injury … the play-by-play indicates that it happened on the caught stealing, so I really hope this isn’t a Stephen Drew/Jason Kendall situation, where his spike got caught and his foot got twisted around
