The New York Post reports that Shelley Duncan was recently released from the hospital.
Shelley Duncan is out of an Arizona hospital, but the extent of a circulatory problem believed to be a blood clot in an arm isn’t known because the Yankees aren’t talking about it.
Duncan was admitted to the hospital last week, and according to agent Barry Meister and GM Brian Cashman, he is no longer there.
“I spoke to Shelley [yesterday] and he isn’t in the hospital,” Meister told The Post yesterday. “Anything else you have to get from the Yankees.”
It does not speak well for our society that the media thinks it has the right to know about a man’s sensitive medical information. There is never a good time to go through something scary like this, but it must be an awful thing during the holidays. The thoughts and prayers of TheYankeesBlog.com go out to Shelley and his family at this time. Hopefully he gets better in time for Spring Training and is continue to have a productive career and life doing what he loves.
