NEW YORK -- While Alex Rodriguez still has his J. Lo, the Yankees sent theirs packing.
For now.
Manager Aaron Boone said the Yankees optioned right-handed starting pitcher Jonathan Loaisiga following a 5-3 loss to the Braves at Yankee Stadium on Monday.
Loaisiga had given up three runs in four innings, throwing a career-high 92 pitches.
Loaisiga will go to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, which is interesting, considering he's never pitched there. The Yankees had promoted him straight from Double-A Trenton when Masahiro Tanaka (two strained hamstrings) got hurt.
