History

Historical Context

In 2011, Yankees star Alex Rodriguez, recovering from meniscus surgery that ended his 30-home-run streak, tore his ACL and was placed on the 60-day injured list, costing the club about $12 million and sidelining him for 45 games. The pattern repeated in 2026 when the Phillies put outfielder Adolis García on the 60-day IL after a latissimus dorsi tear, forcing roster shuffles.
