New York Yankees starting pitcher Domingo German will reportedly miss the rest of the 2019 MLB season, including the playoffs, after being placed on administrative leave Thursday under the league's domestic violence policy.
ESPN's Buster Olney reported Friday that while the case isn't "fully resolved administratively," German will not return to the club's active roster this year.
The Yankees released a statement after German was placed on leave:
"We fully support all measures being undertaken by the Commissioner's Office pursuant to the Policy on Domestic Violence. We support this policy which reinforces that domestic violence has no place in our society and cannot be tolerated.
