Austin Wells was sent for tests over the weekend, and the Yankees hopeful he'll resume starting behind the plate Wednesday night at Toronto.

The New York Yankees rookie catcher is dealing with a circulation issue in his left hand, specifically affecting one of his fingers. The club has run Wells through a series of medical tests over the past two days to rule out any serious vascular concerns, including the type of aneurysm that sidelined former Yankees catcher Ben Rortvedt last season.

Those tests have come back with good news, but the Yankees wanted to do their due diligence since the last time they had a catcher dealing with circulation issues in his finger it was Ben Rortvedt, who was eventually discovered to have an aneurysm near his left shoulder in spring of 2023.
