Burdi’s velocity was down during his rehab stint and his history of injuries and poor control didn’t help him. If Burdi clears waivers, he has the right to refuse an outright assignment and elect free agency. Scranton (78-56) (Mauled Syracuse, […]

Yankees MILB 7/20: Pitching Rules!

News RHP Cody Morris cleared waivers and was outrighted to Scranton. With Josh Maciejewski demoted to Scranton, my guess is that Yoendrys Gomez will get the call. That is a guess, but he is rested and conveniently on the 40-man roster. It appears the Yankees are not ready to promote Scott Effross. Scranton (50-42) (Defeated Buffalo, 8-3, in 11 innings) CF […]
