Back in July, Aroldis Chapman experienced some knee discomfort and sat out the All Star Game to rest it. The Cuban Missile was able to avoid a DL stint, but that may not be the case for much longer.

After throwing just six pitches Tuesday against Miami, Chapman removed himself from the game due to increased knee pain. The Yankees’ closer is set to undergo an MRI Wednesday to see what the issue is.
