Heartbreaking news: As two very loyal key players of New York Yankees are suspended, while facing a strong match

NEW YORK (AP) — Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred suspended Yankees pitcher Jimmy Cordero for the remainder of the season on Wednesday for breaking the league’s policy against domestic abuse.

The 31-year-old Dominican right-hander, according to Major League Baseball, accepted the punishment and will miss the postseason and the final 76 games of the regular season. His compensation decreases by $309,677.

When asked if he would be happy to have Cordero back on the squad, Aaron Judge, the captain of New York, replied to reporters, “I think that’s a ways away.” I’m not certain. When the season is finished, I’ll have a more insightful response for you.”

In one start and thirty relief appearances, Cordero was 3-2 with a 3.86 ERA. His pay is $720,000, which is the major league minimum. After undergoing Tommy John surgery while a member of the Chicago White Sox organization in 2021, he was sidelined and played in 2022 for the Yankees’ Triple-A squad at Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.
“Last night, I learned about the suspension. He informed me of an ongoing probe when he spoke with me a few days earlier. Before the Yankees’ game against Baltimore on Wednesday night, manager Aaron Boone stated, “That’s kind of the extent of it.”

It’s depressing when you hear or receive such news. Your thoughts are with all those who are affected. Once more, I don’t know what happened and I don’t have any information, but that’s part of the purpose of the investigation and the established procedure.
