The Baseball Gods got must have gotten ahold of this picture and decided to punish him Good news, Yankees fans! Since we clearly did not have quite enough injured players yet, the Baseball Gods kindly struck down Robby Cano with a small tear in his left hamstring. The poor kid was running out a double—his 17th of the season, incidentally—when the injury occurred. An MRI confirmed the injury on Tuesday, and he’ll be sidelined till after the All-Star break. Cairo will be taking over at 2nd, but AAA Columbus infielder Nick Green was brought up to fill out the roster Sarcasm aside, I suppose we should feel lucky that it is only a small tear and should heal quickly. We should also feel lucky to have Cairo, who, while he isn’t exactly a hit machine, is doing fairly well for a bench player. He’s stolen 6 bases, and he can.....
