LHP Pedro Feliciano, who has been out all season, underwent left rotator cuff surgery Sept. 8, performed by Dr. James Andrews in Birmingham, Ala. The decision to have surgery puts the reliever's 2012 season in jeopardy.
CC Sabathia will start Friday in Toronto, followed by Bartolo Colon and Freddy Garcia. Girardi said Phil Hughes would start Monday's makeup game against the Twins.
