Earlier today Bryan Hoch of MLB.com tweeted that New York Yankees first baseman, Luke Voit, has undergone an MRI on his left knee. The results showed that he has a meniscus tear and will require surgery. At this time it looks like he will be out until about June.
This has also set the stage for a Yankees ST invitee to break camp. Who is it?
