Prior to tonight’s game, the Yankees made the following roster moves:
• Reassigned C Ali Sánchez, C Payton Henry and OF Kenedy Corona to minor league camp.
• Optioned RHP Kervin Castro, RHP Yerry de los Santos and OF Jasson Domínguez to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

Fantasy Impact:
Castro had a great spring for the Yankees as he posted a 0.96 ERA in 9.1 innings with a 6:2 K:BB ratio. The veteran righthander came up quickly and appeared in 20 major league games with the Giants and Cubs in 2021 and 2022 and posted a 4.91 ERA in 25.2 innings. He was an option to earn an Opening Day spot after posting a 1.53 ERA with a 52:22 K:BB ratio in 47 innings last year with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. He’ll open the 2026 campaign there, but would likely be one of the first call-ups if the bullpen deals with struggles and/or injuries.
