“#The big mystery surrounding Aroldis Chapman\u2019s coronavirus<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n Aroldis Chapman doesn\u2019t know exactly when he will be ready to anchor the Yankees\u2019 bullpen, but he has more information on that situation than he does about how he contracted the coronavirus that put him on the COVID-19 injured list to start the season.<\/p>\n

Chapman tested negative during the intake process but positive shortly after spring training 2.0 opened.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t know how or where I contracted the virus,\u2019\u2019 said Chapman, who lost his sense of taste and smell but otherwise wasn\u2019t affected. \u201cI was careful. I was doing what I was supposed to be doing, coming to the stadium and going home.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

Despite feeling fine, Chapman had to test negative twice before being allowed to rejoin the Yankees, and he was immedia<\/a>tely sent to the alternate site in Scranton.<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel good and I feel normal,\u2019\u2019 Chapman said Wednesday.<\/p>\n

As for a return to a big league mound for the first time in a game<\/a> that counts since Game 6 of last year\u2019s crushing ALCS loss that ended the Yankees\u2019 season, Chapman said he is making progress.<\/p>\n

\u201c[Tuesday] faced hitters for the first time and felt better than expected,\u2019\u2019 Chapman said via Zoom. \u201cBeing on the mound and facing hitters and the recovery following that. I believe I have another outing on Thursday or Friday and if everything goes well, if everything goes the way we want, I think any time after that.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

Since Chapman was in the Yankees\u2019 clubhouse for a few days in between testing negative and positive, he was concerned he might have infected a teammate or staff member.<\/p>\n

\u201cOf course, you are worried about your teammates and you understand the situation you are in. Although there are a lot of protocols we follow and we try to do the best we can to keep our distance you still have to train and get your work done working in the gym with other people,\u2019\u2019 Chapman said. \u201cI talked to my teammates and let them know, to kind of give them a heads up.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

According to pitching coach Matt Blake, Chapman will be re-evaluated after Friday\u2019s simulated game.<\/p>\n

\u201cKind of figure out if he rejoins or wants another [sim game],\u2019\u2019 Blake said of Chapman, who pushed speed guns to 99 mph Tuesday. \u201cWe want to go through the necessary precautions as we go down the stretch.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

Zack Britton has gone 6-for-6 in save chances filling in for Chapman.<\/p>\n

\n<\/hr>\n

Aaron Boone is trusting his eyes more than the results when it comes to Gary Sanchez\u2019s struggles at the plate.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe had a number of longer at-bats where he laid off pitches,\u2019\u2019 Boone said when asked about Sanchez\u2019s at-bats Tuesday night \u2014 when he went hitless in four at-bats, but did hit one ball hard. \u201cI would say more in the fight. I feel he is starting to see the ball and recognize pitches better.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

Sanchez was 4-for-43 (.093) this season entering Wednesday night\u2019s game and had struck out 24 times.<\/p>\n

\n<\/hr>\n

Tommy Kahnle going down in the first week of the season and needing Tommy John surgery was a big blow for the Yankees\u2019 bullpen, since the right-hander\u2019s change-up was a legitimate weapon against left-handed hitters.<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, Jonathan Holder, a disapp<\/a>ointment last year when he was sent to Trip<\/a>le-A, has helped fill the hole left by Kahnle\u2019s departure.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe has been outstanding for us, primarily with the four-seam fastball and the change-up,\u2019\u2019 Blake said of the 27-year-old right-hander, who hadn\u2019t allowed a run in five appearances (6 \u00b2\/\u2083 innings) and struck out six. \u201cHaving a cutter and curveball in play, just having a well-rounded mix and gets righties and lefties out.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

\n<\/hr>\n

When Giancarlo Stanton went on the IL Sunday, the Yankees had a choice between Clint Frazier, who was promoted from the alternate site, and Miguel Andujar, who wasn\u2019t.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnother one of those tough calls. Just felt that Clint kind of earned that from what we were seeing,\u2019\u2019 Boone said. \u201cAt this time felt like we wanted to go with Clint.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

Andujar being raw in the outfield and having one hit in 14 at-bats before being sent out played a part in the decision.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
