Marcus Stroman has been placed on the 15-day injured list due to left knee inflammation after a challenging outing against the San Francisco Giants. The Yankees announced the move shortly before their game, following Stroman's poor performance where he allowed five runs and recorded only two outs. Manager Aaron Boone noted that Stroman was feeling discomfort in his knee and underwent tests after the game.

This season, Stroman has struggled, posting an 11.57 ERA over three starts. The Yankees recalled Allan Winans from Triple-A to replace him, as their starting rotation has faced challenges with a 5.46 ERA. Clarke Schmidt is expected to return soon, further complicating the rotation decisions for the Yankees.
