  • Impressive in non-save situation
    Kopech struck out the side without allowing a baserunner Tuesday against the Blue Jays.

    Advice: Kopech entered the game in the ninth inning and was tasked with protecting a five-run lead. He needed only 15 pitches to end the game, and he racked up seven called strikes without generating a whiff. After a shaky start to the season, Kopech now has six consecutive scoreless appearances, maintaining an 8:5 K:BB across 6.1 frames in that span. Rotowire.com 54 minutes ago
     
  • Starting rehab assignment
    Hoeing (hamstring) has been sent to Triple-A Jacksonville to begin a rehab assignment.

    Advice: Hoeing has been out since early May with a strained left hamstring but is ready to test things out in a game environment. Since he hasn't missed much time, his rehab assignment figures to be brief. Rotowire.com 56 minutes ago

  • Continuing rehab at Single-A
    Drohan (shoulder) has been transferred to Single-A Winston-Salem to continue his rehab assignment.

    Advice: Working his way back from left shoulder nerve decompression surgery, Drohan allowed three runs with a 9:2 K:BB over 3.2 innings in three appearances with the Arizona Complex League White Sox. The Rule 5 pick will likely use all of his 30 allotted rehab days before the White Sox add him to the roster. Drohan will need to remain on Chicago's roster all season or be offered back to the Red Sox. Rotowire.com Today, 6:24 am
     
  • Set to work three innings
    Devenski (knee) is scheduled to throw three innings with Triple-A Durham in a rehab appearance Wednesday, per MLB.com.

    Advice: The Rays are planning to use Devenski as a long reliever after his activation from the injured list. He threw two frames in his most recent appearance and will now build up his length a bit more. It's unclear whether Wednesday's rehab outing will be his last, but Devenski is expected to return to the active roster by the end of May. Rotowire.com Today, 6:23 am
     
  • Yankees option Clayton Andrews to Triple-A
    Yankees optioned LHP Clayton Andrews to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

    Advice: Andrews was shipped back to the minors following Tuesday’s game against the Mariners to make room for Tommy Kahnle to return from the injured list ahead of Wednesday’s showdown. Rotoworld Today, 6:21 am
     
  • Takes loss against Red Sox
    Adam (2-1) allowed two earned runs on two hits and two walks while striking out one across one inning to take the loss Tuesday against the Red Sox.

    Advice: Adam entered the game in the eighth inning with the score tied 2-2. He settled in after allowing the first three batters he faced to reach base, though he was unable to recover from his early struggles. The outing snapped a seven-appearance scoreless stretch, and Adam has been excellent overall this season by maintaining a 2.05 ERA and 1.00 WHIP across 22 innings to go along with three saves and 10 holds.

  • Optioned to Triple-A
    The Yankees optioned Andrews to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday.

    Advice: Andrews was selected from Triple-A earlier Tuesday, and he will now head back to the minors immediately following New York's loss to the Mariners -- though now he has a spot on the 40-man roster. The left-hander only pitched one-third of an inning against Seattle, allowing a solo home run to Luke Raley in the process. Although Andrews has been serviceable in the minors since being DFA'd in mid-April, his career 27.00 ERA through 3.2 big-league innings may cause the Yankees to look elsewhere if they need to rely on their organizational bullpen depth later in the year.

  • Trevor Megill rebounds with save Tuesday vs. Fish
    Trevor Megill fired a scoreless ninth inning on Tuesday against the Marlins to record his seventh save of the season.

    Advice: Megill got the call to protect a two-run lead in the final frame and needed just 14 pitches (11 strikes) to slam the door. It was a much-needed bounce-back after suffering his first blown save of the season during Monday’s series opener at loan Depot park. The 30-year-old righty has converted seven of his eight save chances so far filling in for an injured Devin Williams. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:56 pm
     
  • Robert Gasser fails to record strikeout vs. Fish
    Robert Gasser was charged with five runs (four earned) over six innings on Tuesday in a no-decision against the Marlins.

    Advice: On the heels of a pair of impressive outings to open his big-league career, Gasser turned in one of the more bizarre pitching lines of the season as he managed to allow five runs, despite not allowing a home run or walking a batter. He also didn’t record a strikeout. Weird. We’re not totally sure what to make of it, but we’d bank on the strikeouts coming back when he squares off against the Cubs on Monday in his next outing.
