COLBY WHITE IS A NEW YORK YANKEE


It happened in a hot second.  The Yankees just upgraded their arms.  I guess that statement is up for debate though. I mean Colby White I believe is a solid pitcher with a bright future. He was a 6th round pick for the Rays.  But he has struggled with injuries. That being said, the Bronx is sometimes a place known for second chances and success... and that's what Cashman is banking on.

MLB Trade Rumors writes:

"The Yankees announced Thursday that they’ve claimed right-hander Colby White off waivers from the Rays, who’d designated him for assignment late last week. White has been optioned to Double-A Somerset. The Yankees already had an open 40-man spot after designating outfielder Taylor Trammell for assignment and outrighting him to Triple-A..."

Command after injury seems to be the issue with White, but it's something the Yankees hope to fix in White while he's in the minors. We shall see.

For now, it's welcome to the New York, Colby!
