The Yankees don’t know when their MVP will return to the lineup as they attempt to hold off the Blue Jays and Orioles in the AL East.
Mark Teixeira wasn’t available for a second straight game Wednesday against the Twins at Yankee Stadium because of a bone bruise in his right lower leg. Teixeira suffered the injury Monday night when he fouled a ball off his leg and left the game.
“It’s not a whole lot better. We know it’s day-to-day,’’ manager Joe Girardi said of Teixeira’s situation before the game. Afterward he sent the same message.
