Left-handed pitcher Nestor Cortes is on the 15-day injured list, along with reliever Aroldis Chapman. Pitchers Miguel Castro, Stephen Ridings, and Luis Severino are all on the 60-day injured list. Being depleted during the final weeks of the season is devastating for a contending team.Brandon Farraye@BFarraye@BryanHoch Just an absolutely crushing blow. This means you are playing Aaron Hicks who is one of the worst players in all of MLB, and a combination of 2 unproven guys in Florial and Cabrera (who I actually like).
