It was the second big move for the 26-year-old pitcher, who came up to provide some much-needed depth but returned to the minors without any time on the mound.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Yankees Send Jayvien Sandridge Back to Triple-A Again<\/h2>\n<p>As RotoWire noted, Sandridge had just been called up to the Yankees for the second time in a matter of days.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNew York called up Sandridge from the minors for the second time in less than week, but he\u2019ll once again be returned to the minors without having made an appearance out of the big-league bullpen,\u201d the report noted. \u201cThe Yankees haven\u2019t announced a corresponding move, but right-hander Allan Winans is expected to be recalled from Triple-A on Monday to start the team\u2019s series opener in Cincinnati.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sandridge had six appearance at Triple-A this season, allowing one run in seven innings pitched. He has been a fixture in the minor leagues in his career, sporting a 3.82 ERA over the course of seven seasons.<\/p>\n<p>As SB Nation\u2019s Jake Devin noted, Sandridge has been something of a late-bloomer.<\/p>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div id=\"id__f8a88i2dfx\" dir=\"auto\" lang=\"en\" data-testid=\"tweetText\">\n<p>\u201cHe was a 32nd-round prep pick by the 2018 Orioles but didn\u2019t start making real progress until being released and signing with the Reds,\u201d Devin wrote. \u201cHe made it up to Double-A with them before linking up with the Padres\u2019 system in 2024. A casual perusal of his track record suggests he has good stuff but doesn\u2019t know where it\u2019s going; for his career, he has an eye-popping 13.4 K\/9 rate, but an equally jaw-dropping 7.2 BB\/9 rate.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Yankees Pitching Staff Suffers Setback<\/h2>\n<p>The Yankees were hit with a setback earlier this week, with pitcher Ryan Yarbrough headed to the 15-day injured list with what the team called a \u201clow-grade\u201d right oblique strain.<\/p>\n<p>Yankees manager Aaron Boone could not give an exact timeframe on when Yarborough could return to the lineup, but said the team is hopeful it won\u2019t be a long-term setback.<\/p>\n<div>\n<div>\n<p>\u201cHopefully it\u2019s not something that keeps him down from throwing for too long,\u201d Boone said.<\/p>\n<p>As MLB.com noted, Yarbrough had been bothered since a June 13 start against Boston, with his trip to the IL leading to Sandridge\u2019s call-up. The Yankees have more help on the way, the report added.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<p>\u201cThey plan to promote right-hander Allan Winans from Triple-A for Monday\u2019s start,\u201d the report noted. \u201cWinans, 29, has previously pitched in the big leagues with the Braves (7.20 ERA in eight starts from 2023-24). He will be making his Yankees debut at Cincinnati.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Yankees could have more long-term help on the way, with last year\u2019s AL Rookie of the Year Luis Gil working his way back from a back injury that knocked him out during spring training. The Yankees expect him to return some time in the coming weeks, though there is not yet an exact time frame for when he could return to the lineup.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Nathan Dougherty is a sports reporter covering the NFL for Heavy.com, with a focus on the Buffalo Bills, Detroit Lions and Miami Dolphins.
