The Yankees are bringing back Domingo German and promoting one of their best pitching prospects to the highest level of the minors, a source with knowledge of the team's personnel decisions told NJ Advance Media on Wednesday night.
The source, which wasn't authorized to speak publicly, requested anonymity.
German made his big-league debut on Sunday. He was subsequently sent back to Triple-A.
NJ Advance Media couldn't immediately confirm how the team plans to use German, a starting pitcher whom the Yankees used in relief in his first major-league appearance.
Domingo Acevedo, 23, will move from Double-A Trenton to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.
