Detroit – Adam Ottavino makes another rotation on the DFA merry -go -round.
The veteran reader was appointed on Tuesday for the second time in five days, one day after being re-signed and launched 1/3 of a round in the defeat of the Yankees against the Tigers on Monday.
The Yankees had to make room on the active list to restore Ian Hamilton of the injured list before Tuesday’s match, so Ottavino was the strange man.
The 39 -year -old right -hander signed with the Yankees last week to be on the active list for three days while Devin Williams was on the paternity list, but then obtained DFA’D on Friday.
Given its current rate and its rescue status with the Yankees, Ottavino could be back with them on weekends.
“Talking about another guy who has obviously already had a long and distinguished career, I appreciate his joy at going there and competing,” said manager Aaron Boone on Monday. “There is no ego with that. It’s like,” I just like competition and be in action and I can always do it very well. “”
