Yankees' Lou Trivino no longer throwing as another Tommy John recipient nears next step

Yankees' Lou Trivino no longer throwing as another Tommy John recipient nears next step

Lou Trivino has suffered a setback. The reliever, recovering from Tommy John surgery, has been shut down. Yankees manager Aaron Boone made that known on Sunday after imaging and consultations with team doctors and Dr. Neal ElAttrache determined that Trivino is dealing with elbow inflammation after going a little too hard, too fast in his rehab efforts. Trivino's ulnar collateral ligament is intact, and he's two weeks into not throwing after being shut down for three to four weeks.
