New York Yankees Make Roster Move
For Wednesday’s game the Yankees announced that they have called up Angel Chivilli from Triple-A.
The Yankees wrote (via X): “Prior to tonight’s game, the Yankees recalled RHP Angel Chivilli (#57) from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.”
Chivilli has yet to make his Yankees debut.
He is coming off two seasons with the Colorado Rockies.
The 23-year-old has gone 3-8 with a 6.18 ERA in 73 career games.
MLB World Reacts To Latest Yankees Move
Here’s what people were saying on social media:
@FiresideYankees: “The Yankees have recalled RHP Angel Chivilli from AAA to take Yerry De los Santos‘ spot in the bullpen. Chivilli has thrown 8.1 scoreless innings with a 0.48 WHIP in AAA this season. He was acquired from the Rockies on January 28th in exchange for 1B T.J. Rumfield.”
@YankeeSource: “Chivilli pitches backwards. Changeup-slider heavy. Four-seamer gets him in trouble. Memo: Do not use him against Trout.”
@MVJUDGE99: “Why does everyone want Lagrange to come up as a reliever?? Let the kid develop as a starter. We don’t need to ruin another top prospect because we need bullpen help. This is a solid option. Flashed great stuff so far in AAA this year”
@rationalyankee: “A new lottery ticket coming to the bullpen. Hopefully he’s better than the previous lottery tickets the Yankees have put in the bullpen.”
@BronxBomberBall: “The Yankees and being obsessed with former Colorado Rockies, name a better duo”
@lefty23__: “He should’ve been called up yesterday, but I’ll take it”
