Colby White: Everything you need to know

White cleared waivers Thursday and was sent outright to Double-A Somerset. The Yankees claimed White off waivers from Tampa Bay on May 9, and he remained on the 40-man for just 11 days before being DFA'd on Monday. He has appeared in two games for Somerset since joining the Yankees organization, allowing two earned runs across two-thirds of an inning.

White was designated for assignment by the Yankees on Monday. White was claimed off waivers from the Rays earlier this month, but his stay on the Yankees' 40-man roster was a brief one. Clayton Andrews was added in a corresponding move.

The Yankees claimed White off waivers from the Rays on Thursday, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports. White has had a rough 2024, posting a 17.61 ERA and 10:10 K:BB over 7.2 innings at Triple-A Durham. However, he's shown high-end relief potential before, particularly in 2021 before Tommy John surgery, when he had a 104:15 K:BB in 62.1 innings. White will be assigned to Double-A Somerset.
