The last time Michael King was on a major league mound, last July, he walked off with a broken elbow.
But the valuable Yankees reliever expects to be ready by the time the Yankees open the 2023 season on March 30, which would provide a huge boost to their bullpen.
“My [velocity] has been back up there, movement, everything looks normal,” King said Wednesday, while declaring himself “100 percent” good to go. “Now it’s really just, the timing in my mechanics, the sequencing of it is a little off. So I want to get on the mound as much as I can. They’re pulling me back a little bit, just to make sure I’m within my realm of workload to not overdo it just because I want to have that feeling.”
