James Paxton (knee) will return for Yankees Wednesday
New York Yankees starting pitcher James Paxton (knee) confirmed that he will return from the injured list Wednesday against the San Diego Padres.
Paxton hasn't pitched since May 3 due to inflammation in his left knee. The 30-year-old left-hander admitted to not being 100 percent, but is willing to pitch through the pain.
numberFire's models expect Paxton to record a 3.68 ERA and 1.18 WHIP with 149 strikeouts and 37 walks over the rest of the season.
