New York Yankees Announce Roster Move
Also on their day off, the team announced that they had made a roster move.
The Yankees wrote (via X): “Today, the Yankees returned RHP Angel Chivilli from his rehab assignment, reinstated him from the 15-day injured list and optioned him to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.”
Chivilli has been out since April 19.
He appeared in two games for the Yankees this season, going 0-0 with a 3.86 ERA.

He had been traded to the Yankees over the offseason.
The Yankees had written (on January 28): “The New York Yankees today announced that they have acquired right-handed pitcher Angel Chivilli from the Colorado Rockies in exchange for minor league infielder T.J. Rumfield.”
