Yankees say RHP Eovaldi's 2nd Tommy John surgery a success (Yahoo Sports)

The New York Yankees say right-handed pitcher Nathan Eovaldi has had surgery to repair two tears in his elbow. It was the second Tommy John surgery for the 26-year-old, who had the procedure nine years ago when he was a high school junior. It's a stunning setback for the Yankees, who hoped Eovaldi would be a key cog in their rotation for several seasons when they acquired him from the Miami Marlins in December 2014.
