Yankees' Domingo German: Exits with biceps tendinitis

General manager Brian Cashman said German left Thursday's Triple-A start due to biceps tendinitis, Lindsey Adler of The Athletic reports.

German was removed from the contest after throwing just one pitch in the second inning. Cashman added that this was just a "preliminary report" so he denied to comment on German's status in any way. The club will likely announce an update on his condition after he's been further evaluated. It's also worth noting the Yankees traded for J.A. Happ on Thursday, so German's path to major-league starts in the short term appears to be closed right now on a couple of levels.
