The New York Yankees have made several changes to the bullpen over the past few weeks, notably placing Jonathan Loáisiga on the injured list and promoting a few prospects from their Triple-A squad.
Most recently, the Yankees DFAd Colten Brewer off the roster, and since he didn’t have any minor-league options left, he was subject to waivers.
Essentially, another team had an opportunity to scoop him up, but he passed through unclaimed, meaning the Yankees are able to outright him back to their Triple-A squad in Scranton, where he can continue getting in work until need it again.
