Gleyber Layoff

The Yankees put rookie sensation Gleyber Torres on the disabled list with a hip strain:

Torres will officially begin the DL stint during the Yankees’ off day Thursday, as team officials continue to talk through making a corresponding roster move ahead of a three-city road trip starting Friday in Toronto.

The injury, which forced Torres out of Wednesday’s 6-2 win over the Atlanta Braves, was initially believed to be an aggravation of some “tightness” that had nagged Torres earlier this week.

“We’re hoping it’s a short stint,” Yankees manager Aaron Boone said. “Probably take us up to the All-Star break.”

Torres collected 64 hits in his first 63 games, 26 of them for extra bases. They are 45-18 when he plays in a game, including Wednesday’s win over the Braves.
