John Candelaria’s sore right knee was examined, but a decision on the New York Yankee left-hander’s status will be delayed until today.
“We have only preliminary results at this time,” said Syd Thrift, Yankee vice president of baseball operations. “The studies are not complete.”
Candelaria, 35, had discomfort in his knee in each of his last two starts. He pitched five innings Friday night in Chicago before leaving in pain.
Candelaria did not pitch after Aug. 24 last season because of cartilage damage in the knee. He underwent arthroscopic surgery on Oct. 13.
