Frankie Montas, who is coming off another disappointing loss on Friday night, was sent for an MRI on his right shoulder Saturday afternoon.
The right-hander, who has a 6.35 ERA with the Yankees in eight starts, has been a disappointment since the Bombers acquired him from the A’s at the trade deadline.
Montas told the YES Network that he woke up with a little bit of an “impingement” on Friday. Montas missed from July 3-21 with a shoulder issue while with the A’s. He returned to make two starts with Oakland before the Yankees traded for him.
The 29-year-old, who is under team control next year as well, allowed four runs in just 3 1/3 innings of work Friday night in the Yankees’ 7-6 loss to the Brewers.
