Yankees' Paul Goldschmidt dealing with low-grade knee sprain, IL stint possible

Yankees first baseman Paul Goldschmidt is facing a potential injured list stint due to a low-grade right knee sprain. The veteran sustained the injury during Tuesday's game when he slipped chasing a foul pop, and manager Aaron Boone indicated a decision on his IL placement will be made before Friday's game against the Cardinals. Goldschmidt, who is hitting .276 with 10 homers and 40 RBIs this season and .404 against left-handed pitching, was sore after the incident but is reportedly feeling better.
