Prior to tonight’s game, the Yankees made the following roster moves:
• Returned INF Jazz Chisholm Jr. (#13) from his rehab assignment and reinstated him from the 10-day injured list.
• Reinstated RHP Fernando Cruz (#63) from the 15-day injured list.
• Recalled RHP Yerry de…— New York Yankees (@Yankees) June 3, 2025
Chisholm last played on April 29, before a right oblique strain sidelined him for what would turn into the entirety of May. After three rehab games in Double-A, the infielder looks ready to return to the diamond.
Weaver recently suffered a hamstring injury while warming up on Sunday against the Los Angeles Dodgers. ESPN’s Jeff Passan reported that an MRI revealed he could miss four to six weeks of action.
The right-hander has been electric for New York this season, posting a 1.05 ERA across 25.2 frames of work, allowing just three runs in this time. He has 24 strikeouts in as many outings to just seven walks on the year.
It appears that Devin Williams will go back to his role as closer amid Weaver’s absence. The struggling Williams has a 6.23 ERA across 21.2 innings pitched this season and will have to take a major step up with the increased workload.
There will be more bullpen help on the way as Cruz will continue to build upon his 2.66 ERA over 23.2 frames this season. The right-hander has an ERA+ of 150 this season, ranking him 50 percent better than qualified pitchers as he looks to get back to his first season as a Yankee.
De los Santos will also look to take on a larger role, as he has allowed four runs in 12 innings of work in Pinstripes. He has dazzled the mound in 10.1 frames in Triple-A with a 1.74 ERA, striking out 11 batters and walking four.
Vivas split time across second and third base since the beginning of May, but was struggling at the plate with a .156 batting average across 45 at-bats. The 24-year-old heads back to Triple-A, where he was hitting .319 before his call-up.
The right-handed veteran Carrasco struggled in his eight appearances for the Yankees as he allowed 21 runs in 32 innings. The 38-year-old will look for another opportunity to extend his 16-year MLB career.
