Rizzo said Wednesday that the time off between the ALCS and World Series has allowed swelling in his fractured fingers to subside, Greg Joyce of the New York Post reports.

The two fractured fingers on Rizzo's right hand have not yet fully healed, which led to the digits swelling up between ALCS contests. However, the five days off between the ALCS and World Series has, unsurprisingly, been beneficial for the first baseman. Rizzo will likely still have to play through some discomfort against the Dodgers, but he'll be the Yankees' primary first baseman during the Fall Classic.
