Recently, Clarke Schmidt replaced Nestor Cortes in New York’s starting rotation as Nestor Cortes went on the injured with left groin injury. Nestor Cortes said he first felt discomfort in his left groin area in his second to third pitch in his most recent outing a 4-2 win over Toronto. Initially he didn’t know how serious the injury was , so he wrapped the area in the third inning and pitched through the pain.
During the game, I didn't think it was that big of a deal," Cortes said. "Obviously, I wanted to compete and give my team the best chance possible, so I grinded through it. I didn't know how bad it was until the MRI. Even the next day, I thought it was OK, but the fact that I was limping -- we needed the MRI."
New York manager had this to say about Nestor Cortes left groin injury!
Hopefully it's not something that costs him more than a couple starts, and hopefully something maybe that serves him well and gives his body a little break,"He's up and moving already. I actually threw with him out here. He's doing agility drills. He's hitting the ground already in the rehab process, so hopefully it's not something that costs him too much time."
