At this point the New York Yankees' injury report has become a sick joke. Just a day after calling up Jake Bauers as insurance for Aaron Judge – still out with a hip strain that he hopes won't require a trip to the injured list – the team has now put Bauers himself on the IL after the outfielder banged his knee into the left-field wall during Saturday night's game against the Texas Rangers.
Jake Bauers just talked to writers for a couple minutes. He is waiting for MRI results to see how bad his knee injury is from his outfield crash into wall last night. Knee is wrapped and he says there's still lots of swelling. #Yankees
