Yankees MILB 6/8: Roc Riggio Hits 2 HR

Notes: The Yankees claimed utilityman CJ Alexander off waivers from the Athletics and assigned him to Scranton. No corresponding 40-man roster move was needed because they had space. Alexander, who has experience at the “four corners”, is 4-for-25 in his MLB career without an extra-base hit, walk, or stolen base. That’s impressive. He spent time with the […]
