The @Yankees option RHPs Nick Goody and Branden Pinder and LHP Tyler Olson to @swbrailriders and reassign them to minor league camp.

I haven’t done a great job keeping up with all the recent roster cuts, but now that we’re coming down to the end of the spring, every one means more in terms of setting the final 25-man roster. This one announced earlier by the team has a significant impact on the bullpen competition.
Pinder and Goody were both prime candidates for one of the last bullpen spots based on their SWB shuttle service time last year.
