Veteran Carlos Carrasco has been designated for assignment by the New York Yankees, with Yerry de los Santos recalled from Triple-A to fill his spot. Initially signed for rotation depth, Carrasco faced injuries to key pitchers but struggled with a 5.91 ERA over eight appearances. In his last outing, he allowed two runs in three innings from the bullpen. The 38-year-old Carrasco has had a long career, notably finishing fourth in AL Cy Young voting in 2017 after overcoming leukemia.

Meanwhile, DJ LeMahieu's rehab assignment has shifted to Triple-A, and he may return for the Yankees' upcoming series against the Athletics. Right-hander Scott Effross has also started his rehab assignment after recovering from a hamstring injury. The Yankees are hoping to strengthen their roster as they prepare for the latter part of the season.
