  • Summoned to majors
    Morris was recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre by the Yankees on Friday.

    Advice: He's taking the roster and bullpen spot of the injured Nick Burdi (hip). Morris was acquired via trade from the Guardians over the offseason and has posted a 1.93 ERA and 11:6 K:BB across 9.1 frames with Scranton/Wilkes-Barre this season. Rotowire.com 16 minutes ago
     
  • Lands on IL with hip injury
    Burdi was placed on the 15-day injured list on Friday, retroactive to April 17, with right hip inflammation.

    Advice: It's not clear when or how Burdi suffered the injury, but he will be sidelined for at least the next two weeks while he recovers. Burdi hasn't given up a run for the Yankees this season, putting up an 8:5 K:BB over 6.1 innings of work. Rotowire.com 19 minutes ago

  • Suspension reduced to one game
    Chapman's suspension has been reduced to one game, Andrew Destin of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

    Advice: Chapman was given a two-game ban after getting into an altercation with an umpire during Monday's game versus the Mets. He will serve his one-game suspension Friday versus the Red Sox before rejoining the Pirates' bullpen Saturday. Rotowire.com 22 minutes ago
     
  • Returns to lineup Friday
    Drury (hamstring) will be the designated hitter and bat fifth in Friday's game in Cincinnati.

    Advice: Drury missed three games with tightness in his left hamstring, but he's ready to at least hit on Friday against his former team, the Reds. The 31-year-old has gotten off to a slow start at the plate for the Angels this season, putting up a .570 OPS with one home run in 16 contests. Rotowire.com 26 minutes ago
     
  • Not in Friday's lineup
    Devers (knee) is out of the lineup for Friday's game at Pittsburgh, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

    Advice: Devers was diagnosed with a bone bruise on his left knee Thursday and will sit Friday for the third time in Boston's past three games. It's not anticipated the 27-year-old will require a trip to the injured list, but he may not see much action this weekend versus the Pirates. Bobby Dalbec is starting at third base in Devers' absence Friday. Rotowire.com 29 minutes ago
     
  • Homers in first minors game
    Hernaiz, optioned to Triple-A Las Vegas earlier in the day, went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in a win over Tacoma on Thursday.

    Advice: Hernaiz put the first runs of the night on the board in the third inning with his shot to center, which plated Brett Harris. The 22-year-old struggled badly with big-league pitching during his 17-game stint in the majors; however, he got his 2024 minor-league tenure off in a manner akin to his 2023 body of work on the farm, when he fashioned a .319/.384/.454 slash line across 131 games between Double-A Midland and Triple-A Las Vegas.

  • Shifts to 60-day IL
    Antone (elbow) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Friday.

    Advice: The right-hander underwent season-ending surgery to repair the UCL and flexor tendon in his right elbow last week, so it was only a matter of time before he moved to the 60-day IL. Given the nature of the procedure, Antone may not be ready to begin 2025. Rotowire.com 35 minutes ago
     
  • Aroldis Chapman’s suspension reduced to one game

    Advice: The 36-year-old will serve the suspension tonight during the Pirates’ series opener against the Red Sox. Chapman was tossed in the eighth inning during Monday’s game against the Mets after he had an altercation with the home plate umpire. Rotoworld 36 minutes ago
