MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — New York Yankees All-Star closer Aroldis Chapman could return next week from nearly a month on the disabled list.Chapman has not pitched since Aug. 21 because of left knee tendinitis http://www.raysfanproshop.com/authentic-christian-arroyo-jersey , which has bothered him throughout the season. The 30-year-old left-hander threw a bullpen session Wednesday and was to return to New York for treatment. Manager Aaron Boone anticipates another bullpen session this weekend, then a return.“Hopefully back with us, if everything goes well, sometime next week,” Boone said before Wednesday’s game at Minnesota.Chapman has a 2.11 ERA and 31 saves in 33 chances. Dellin Betances has closed mostly in Chapman’s absence. New York’s bullpen also includes David Robertson, Zach Britton and Chad Green.“You can look at it the same way you look at our lineup,” Boone said. “When we were at our best http://www.raysfanproshop.com/authentic-nathan-eovaldi-jersey , one of the reasons was the length of our lineup. We’re able to hurt you from everywhere. … Same way with our bullpen. When you add another guy of Chapman’s capabilities to an already strong group, it just allows you in some cases and on some days to shorten the game even more.” MIAMI (AP) — For a last-place team down to its last hitter on the bench, this was a win worth celebrating.Pinch-hitter Bryan Holaday hit an RBI single in the 11th inning and the Miami Marlins beat the New York Mets 4-3 Saturday night for just their second victory in 11 games.“This is something that we needed,” Holaday said. “It’s tough when you’re not winning games so a win like this can spark us and makes it a lot better in the locker room. Everybody is able to celebrate a win.”Miguel Rojas led off the 11th with a single against Jacob Rhame (0-2) and moved up on Magneuris Sierra’s sacrifice. Holaday followed with a groundball past third baseman Todd Frazier that easily scored Rojas.“That last pitch right there, just a slider that stayed over the middle of the plate and Holaday was able to hook it down the line,” Mets manager Mickey Callaway said.It was Holaday’s second walkoff hit of the season and of his career, and the eighth walkoff victory for the Marlins.“It’s great http://www.raysfanproshop.com/authentic-daniel-robertson-jersey ,” Holaday said. “It’s the best feeling in the world.”Holaday was the last hitter off the bench for the Marlins, who were down to one available reliever.“That was good,” Marlins manager Don Mattingly said. “We were running out of bullets there.”The Marlins improved to 7-4 in extra innings with all 11 game at home.“Hey, let’s go extras tomorrow then,” Mattingly said.Holaday batted for Javy Guerra (1-0), who pitched the 11th.Miami loaded the bases in the eighth with one out, but was unable to score.
