The Yankees have announced that shortstop Eduardo Nunez will be placed on the disabled list with a rib cage injury. The move is retroactive to May 6.

Yankees' Eduardo Nunez injury: MRI on rib cage negative
The injury happened Sunday, but the severity was not determined until Monday afternoon. Eduardo Nunez left Sunday's game with an apparent rib cage injury. The New York Yankees' infielder has found himself playing a valuable role with Derek Jeter sidelined until after the All-Star break, so the team can ill-afford to lose him for an extended period of time.

Eduardo Nunez can’t play defense at the major league level
The Yankees like Eduardo Nunez that much is clear, he’s a middle infielder with a lot of speed, athleticism, and a bit of pop in his bat, and they try to play him as often as possible. On a team with no holes in the lineup, this bench player has managed to find himself in 20 of the team’s first 31 games.
The problem is that he can’t play defense. At all. He’s consistently...

The Horrors of an Overexposed Eduardo Nunez
In 2011, Eduardo Nunez firmly established himself as the Yankees backup infielder. Given the job out of spring training, the then 23 year old seemed to rise to the occasion.
