It frustrates me not to be healthy the entire season. “There’s no way it’s part of the game,” he from Nicaragua said with resignation.
Loaisiga admits that his Sinker, Change and Straight They were effective in the periods where health allowed it; However, the bad time of the reliable Pinolero reliever was part of the frustrating season of the New York Yankees who did not reach the postseason for the first time since 2016.
