Should Ben Rortvedt's Latest Injury Be A Concern For The Yankees?
If you have been anxiously awaiting the debut of Ben Rortvedt, you will have to wait a little bit longer. How much longer? That’s a really good question that I wish we knew.
I’ve been really intrigued with Rortvedt since we acquired him with Josh Donaldson and Isiah Kiner-Falefa in the trade that sent Gio Urshela and Gary Sanchez to the Twins last offseason. His glove could be a golden ticket for the Yankees….if we get to see him in action. He hasn’t had any big league action since 2021 where he played in 39 games for the Twins.
So how much longer do we wait to see him in pinstripes? At least a month, bare minimum, read more HERE. Rortvedt had surgery yesterday for a finger ailment that doctors spent days trying to figure out, but couldn’t. Ultimately, he saw a specialist who was able to determine that he had an aneurysm near the posterior in his left shoulder, which had impacted the circulation in his hand and fingers. Yikes!
Is anyone else having flashbacks from 1996? All I can think about is David Cone‘s aneurysm that led to him losing feeling in his fingers. Talk about a flashback. For now, we will continue watching Jose Trevino and Kyle Higashioka and see what happens over time.
I really hope Rortvedt gets some action in pinstripes, but he hasn’t been healthy since we acquired him, and that is a concern for me. First it was an oblique injury and then he had knee surgery to clean up his meniscus. It feels like it’s one issue after another with him and he’s only 25 years old.
Hard to ignore the injuries here, but I am trying to think about the promise he has with his glove. I’ve always loved a good, strong defensive catcher. Question is…. will he be ours?
