Another Yankees player goes down to injury. Kevin Youkilis who strangely enough has almost been the heart of the Yankees lineup this season, was placed on the 15-day DL with a back injury.

Here’s an updated list of Yankees players on the disabled list.

Shortstop Derek Jeter

Third Baseman Alex Rodriguez

Center Fielder Curtis Granderson

First Baseman Mark Teixeira

First Baseman/Third Baseman Kevin Youkilis

Catcher Francisco Cervelli

Starting Pitcher Ivan Nova

Starting Pitcher Michael Pineda

That DL-lineup could probably contend in couple divisions in baseball. The Yankees are currently 15-10 this season, because anything can happen when you put on the pinstripes.
