Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Boone: Minimum IL stay 'ambitious'

Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Tuesday in his appearance on Jomboy Media's "Talkin' Yanks" podcast that it would be "a little ambitious" to think Chisholm (elbow) could return from the 10-day injured list when first eligible on Aug. 24.

Chisholm has, by all accounts, bounced back quickly from a UCL sprain in his left (non-throwing) elbow, as he's already resumed fielding grounders and hopes to be cleared to swing a bat soon. However, while the player had expressed optimism about returning when his 10 days are up, his manager is downplaying the possibility. A clearer timetable for Chisholm's return should be available in the coming days.
