Ryan Yarbrough hits injured list in Yankees pitching blow

The Yankees rotation took a hit Sunday, as they put Ryan Yarbrough on the 15-day IL with a right oblique strain.

Yarbrough provided unexpected stabilization to the rotation in the wake of injuries to Gerrit Cole and Luis Gil, as well as Marcus Stroman.

Stroman has been on a rehab assignment after being sidelined with left knee inflammation.

Allan Winans, who has pitched well at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, was scheduled to start Sunday for SWB and could take Yarbrough’s spot on Monday in Cincinnati.
