Marcus Stroman of the New York Yankees has recently received a cortisone shot to address inflammation in his left knee after experiencing pain following his last game against the San Francisco Giants. Despite a clear MRI, Yankees manager Aaron Boone mentioned the swelling and hopes for a quick recovery as Stroman was placed on the 15-day injured list. He has struggled this season, starting with an 11.57 ERA over three games, and is due for performance improvement as he approaches his 34th birthday and a potential $16 million player option for 2026.
