Yankees MILB 4/28: Cam Schlittler: 6 IP, 2 R, 7 K

News: As expected, RHP McKinley Moore cleared waivers and was outrighted to Scranton. The arm is tempting, but it is hard for organizations to carry it on a 40-man roster. This is why the outright rule exists. A player can only be outrighted once in their career. After that, they can refuse the outright and become a […]
