Tommy Kahnle to 10-day DL, Luis Cessa recalled
Prior to the series finale against the Marlins, the Yankees have placed Tommy Kahnle on the 10-day DL with right shoulder tendonitis. In response, the Yanks recalled right-handed journeyman Luis Cessa back up from Triple-A.
ROSTER MOVES: Prior to tonight’s game, the @Yankees placed RHP Tommy Kahnle on the 10-day disabled list (retroactive to 4/16) with right shoulder tendonitis and recalled RHP Luis Cessa from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.— Yankees PR Dept. (@YankeesPR) April 17, 2018
Kahnle had been struggling lately and overall this season including a noticed drop in velocity, which is now explained. In six outings accumulating 7.1 innings, the righty has a 6.14 ERA while giving up eight walks. His WHIP of 1.64 has concerned Yankee fans and the reason of his struggles has now came out. Hopefully just a minor injury, Kahnle’s presence will certainly be missed in the already struggling bullpen. Cessa’s appeared in two outings in 2018 so far, not allowing a base runner across two innings.
Per Aaron Boone, Kahnle's initial test results came back clean so the team thinks this will be a short DL stint where hopefully just rest will get Kahnle back to form.
