New York Yankees outfielder Trey Amburgey (hamstring) was placed on the 10-day injured list with a right hamstring strain Tuesday. Amburgey was removed from Sunday's game against the Red Sox due to what appeared to be a day-to-day issue at the time, though it's an ailment that will cost Amburgey some time on the sidelines. The Yankees recalled Estevan Florial from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. Florial has one hit in three at-bats at the big league level this year but has 12 homers and nine stolen bases in 52 games between Double-A and Triple-A. The 23-year-old should see playing time right away with the Yankees' outfield depth getting thinner by the day.
New York Yankees outfielder Trey Amburgey (hamstring) is considered day-to-day. Amburgey exited Sunday's matchup against the Red Sox after injuring his right hamstring. Although it looked bad when it happened, it now appears that he was dealing with a cramp, which is good news for a club that is sorely lacking depth in the outfield. His status ahead of Tuesday's matchup against Philadelphia is unknown, although it's likely he's not on many fantasy rosters at the moment anyway.
New York Yankees outfielder Trey Amburgey (leg) exited Sunday's outing against the visiting Red Sox. The 26-year-old appeared to injure his hamstring while attempting to reach first base during a double play. This is unfortunate news, primarily since Amburgey just had his contract purchased from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre and was expected to fill the void caused by the collective absences of Aaron Judge (COVID-19) and Tim Locastro (knee). Brett Gardner came in to relieve him, with more information regarding his status likely to come soon.
New York Yankees outfielder Trey Amburgey is heading up to the big league roster Thursday. With Wandy Peralta and Nestor Cortes heading to the COVID-19 Injured List, Amburgey is one of the corresponding roster moves. The 26-year-old righty-swinging outfielder has excelled at the Triple-A level over the last two seasons, clubbing 29 homers with seven stolen bases over his last 162 games. Amburgey is likely to see time in left field, where the Yankees could use a spark after getting minimal production out of both Clint Frazier and Miguel Andujar (wrist) at that position.
