The New York Yankees optioned right-hander Domingo German to the team's alternate training site following a rough outing in Saturday's 4-0 loss to the Tampa Bay Rays.
German allowed four runs and eight hits in four innings, walking one and striking out five. After looking sharp in spring training, the righty has yielded four homers in seven innings over two starts to this season.
German, 28, missed all of 2020 while serving the remainder of an 81-game suspension for violating Major League Baseball's domestic violence policy in 2019.
