Yankees activate Carlos Beltran off 7-day concussion DL

As expected, the Yankees have activated Carlos Beltran off the seven-day concussion disabled list. Bryan Mitchell was sent to Triple-A Scranton during the All-Star break to clear a roster spot. It goes without saying the Yankees need Beltran to hit and hit a lot in the second half if they want to contend. What he’s given them so far this year isn’t nearly enough.
