Girardi confirms Chamberlain injured on trampoline (http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/news;_ylt=AqXYrANeCk_P2ktZzrgh_IY5nYcB?slug=ap-yankees-chamberlain)
TAMPA Fla. (AP)—Yankees manager Joe Girardi confirmed that reliever Joba Chamberlain dislocated his right ankle on a trampoline.
Chamberlain was hurt while playing with his son Thursday at a local spot that had trampoline and related type of equipment.
“I know he did it on the trampoline, that he was bouncing,” Girardi said on Saturday.
Yankees general manager Brian Cashman visited Chamberlain in the hospital and said the 26-year-old pitcher told him he could be released from the medical facility this weekend.
“If he gets out today or tomorrow, that would be extremely positive,” Cashman said.
Chamberlain also told Cashman he could be back on a mound by July. Cashman did not have the results Saturday morning on Chamberlain’s MRI exam and CT scan, which were done on Friday.
“That’s what he told me the doctors are telling him,” Cashman said. “We’ll see. I don’t know. I’m just passing on what he said, and hopefully that’s all accurate. That’s the optimistic side. I don’t think anybody can tell anybody directly right now anything on that.”
