OF Clint Frazier is coming to the big leagues, according to Brendan McGair and Jack Curry. I hope they do a good job with the red hair on his Hall of Fame plaque. I imagine the Yankees will use him exactly like they were planning to use OF Dustin Fowler. This also allows them to send 3B Miguel Andujar back down for regular at-bats.
Triple-A Scranton‘s game was suspended due to rain after the third inning. They’ll complete this one tomorrow, and I’ll update the stats then. Here’s the box score. Not a whole lot happened before the rain started.
