The good news for Yankees fans is that Miguel Andujar is back from the IL, and Giancarlo Stanton is close to a return. The bad news is that they just lost another player to the IL. James Paxton has been placed on the 10 day IL with left knee inflammation, the team announced around 5 hours ago. He was removed from yesterday's start against the Minnesota Twins due to knee soreness. Right hander Jake Barrett was called up from Triple A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre to replace the oft-injured Paxton.
