The New York Yankees placed reliever Yerry De los Santos on the 15-day injured list Thursday with right elbow discomfort.

The 27-year-old right-hander has no decisions and a 1.80 ERA in 14 relief appearances in his first season in the Bronx.

De los Santos retired one batter and allowed one hit and one walk in the sixth inning in a 3-2 loss to the visiting Los Angeles Angels on Wednesday night.

To replace him in the bullpen, the team signed left-hander Jayvien Sandridge to a major league contract and called him up from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.
