Yankees’ Cody Bellinger downplays back issue as he hopes to return soon
NY Post
PITTSBURGH — For a second straight game, Cody Bellinger was out of the Yankees’ lineup on Saturday.
But the outfielder, whose back first tightened up on him during Thursday’s game, said he has dealt with this before and it has typically been a “few-day thing.”
He was feeling enough improvement that he took swings in the cage on Saturday morning.
“It’s feeling good, responded well,” Bellinger said at PNC Park. “I just took some swings, so I feel really good where I’m at right now.”
Bellinger described the issue as some unalignment in his back creating tightness around his belt line.
The 29-year-old expected to be available off the bench Saturday and said returning to the lineup Sunday was a possibility.
