NEW YORK -- Veteran right-hander Carlos Carrasco was designated for assignment by the New York Yankees, the club announced Tuesday. Yerry de los Santos was recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barres to take Carrasco's place on the roster.
Carrasco was signed to a minor league contract over the offseason to serve as rotation depth and not projected to be one of the team's five starting pitchers. But he broke camp in the rotation after injuries to Gerrit Cole, Luis Gil and Clarke Schmidt during spring training.
He appeared in eight games, starting six, and compiled a 5.91 ERA. He last pitched Sunday, giving up two runs on five hits over three innings out of the bullpen.
