Yankees sign Anthony DeSclafani after failed Carlos Carrasco experiment
NY Post
The Yankees signed veteran right-hander Anthony DeSclafani to a minor league deal Tuesday and assigned him to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.
The 35-year-old last pitched in the majors in 2023 for the Giants, posting a 4.88 ERA across 19 games (18 starts), before undergoing surgery in March of 2024 to repair the flexor tendon in his right arm.
DeSclafani could represent starting depth for a team in need of it.
Swingman Ryan Yarbrough is currently the Yankees fifth starter — with Allan Winans the next man up at Triple-A — after Carlos Carrasco was designated for assignment last week.
Carrasco passed through waivers and accepted an outright assignment to SWB, making his first start Tuesday against Toledo.
The veteran allowed two runs on six hits in 4 2/3 innings, striking out four while walking one batter.
