The Yankees announced that right-hander has been reinstated from the 60-day injured list and optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. To open a 40-man roster spot, fellow righty has been designated for a signment. Poteet landed on the 15-day injured list in June due to a right triceps strain, eventually getting transferred to the 60-day IL. He started a rehab a signment on August 20 and was coming to the 30-day limit for that a signment, meaning he had to be added back to the roster. Hell give the Yanks Humberto Mejia Jersey some extra rotation depth for the next little bit but theyre highly unlikely to need it. They currently have a mix of , , , and , with bumped into a long relief role. Marinaccio, now 29, had a strong debut in 2022. He to sed 44 innings for the Yankees that year, allowing 2.05 earned runs per nine. His 13.3% walk rate was on the high side but he overcame that with a 30.9% strikeout rate. Since then, his results have declined a bit. In 47 1/3 innings last year, he posted a 3.99 ERA. His 13.2% walk rate was almost an exact match from the previous year but his strikeout rate dropped to 27.3%. Here in 2024, he has been frequently shuttled back and forth between the Yankees and the Triple-A RailRiders. In his 23 1/3 big league innings, he has a 3.86 ERA. He reduced his walk rate to 10.1% but his strikeouts also dropped to 25.3%. In 39 2/3 innings for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, he has a 2.04 ERA, 25.8% strikeout rate and 8.8% walk rate. There are some intriguing results in there but the righty is in his final option year and has already been sent down five times this season, so the Yanks werent going to have the same roster flexibility with him going forward. They will have to put him on waivers in the coming days. He wont be postseason eligible with any acquiring club, so there would be little short term appeal to a claim, but some club could grab him as a long-term play. He has just over two years of service time, meaning he still wont be arbitration eligible as of this winter and would come with four years of club control beyond the current campaign.
