The Yankees have announced on Tuesday that they have placed infielder Kevin Youkilis on the 15-day disabled list with a lumbar spine sprain.
Kevin Youkilis missed six days before being inserted into the lineup on Saturday against the Blue Jays. He was hitless in three at-bats and hasn't been in the lineup since.
Youkilis underwent an MRI on Monday and the results came back negative. He was given an epidural injection on Tuesday to alleviate the pain. Yankee Manager Joe Girardi said that Youkilis is expected to begin baseball activities in seven to ten days.
The Yankees have recalled infielder Corbin Joeseph from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre to replace Youkilis.
