For the first time in his major league career, Gleyber Torres is giving the Yankees reason to be worried.

The rookie sensation was placed on the 10-day disabled list with a mild hip strain after leaving Wednesday’s 6-2 win over the Braves early and undergoing an MRI exam. Torres, who had returned to the starting lineup after sitting most of Tuesday’s game with a tight right hip flexor, was removed before the fifth inning.

Prior to the game, manager Aaron Boone said he wasn’t worried about Torres’ status — having used him as a defensive replacement Tuesday — but after the 21-year-old struck out in the fourth inning for the second time Wednesday, he was taken out of the game before the Yankees took the field again.

“I was excited about how he came in [Tuesday],” Boone said before the game. “I knew he was fine yesterday. I didn’t hesitate to put him in.”
