05/08: Girardi: Mariano Rivera Dealing with "Arm Strength" Problems
After
last night's loss to the Rays, Joe Girardi
told Peter Abraham that he 's been having issues tied to "arm strength."
MLB.com's Anthony DiComo has more from the manager.
"The velocity is not there," Girardi said. "That's part of it. I still think he's coming back from the surgery he went through. That's why we've been very careful with him. Mo's always going to take the ball -- that's Mariano Rivera. But he's had some days where he hasn't felt the greatest."
Let's hope it's just Mo working his strength back up, rather than an issue that will require time off.
