Aaron Boone: Darren O Day s season likely over due to hamstring injury By Erin Walsh | Last updated 7/18/21
The New York Yankees will be down a veteran reliever for the rest of the 2021 season.
According to Greg Joyce of the New York Post, Yankees manager Aaron Boone revealed Sunday that Darren O Day s season is likely over due to the left hamstring strain he suffered during a pregame workout on July 6. I would say it s likely his season is over, but we ll have some more information on that when it s ready to give, Boone said.
O Day also missed two months earlier this season due to a right rotator-cuff strain. The right-hander has pitched to a 3.38 ERA over 12 games, striking out 11 in 10.2 innings.

Over two-thirds of MLB teams were within nine games of a division lead or Wild Card spot at the All-Star break. As the July 30 Trade Deadline draws closer, decision makers across the league will be forced to decide between pushing for a playoff spot or trading players to set up a run in 2022 or beyond.
Here are six teams and 14 players on the bubble that could shake things up and impact the playoff picture if they become sellers.

Atlanta Braves (Playoff odds: 7.6%)
While the Braves have been aggressive early by acquiring outfielder Joc Pederson from the Cubs and catcher Stephen Vogt from the D-backs, the team may still consider selling talent at the Trade Deadline, according to MLB Network insider Ken Rosenthal. Atlanta is in a season-defining stretch featuring 15 games in 14 days against Tampa Bay, San Diego, Philadelphia and the New York Mets to start the second half.
