Masahiro Tanaka Tosses Another Bullpen Session
6 years agoTraveling with the New York Yankees as they find themselves in Philadelphia for a series against the Phillies, starter Masahiro Tanaka (hamstrings) tossed a second bullpen session Tuesday. The 29-year-old is inching closer to returning after going on the disabled list earlier this month with strains in both hamstrings. Afterward, manager Aaron Boone stated Tanaka was ready to take the next step, which would be game action, although not at the major league level. He will either toss a simulated game or make a rehab start with a minor league affiliate. Boone stated that just one start may be enough for Tanaka to return to the Yankees.
