Yankees recall INF Ramiro Pena from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. | ||||||
He'll replace Derek Jeter on the active roster. Pena, 25, was batting .269/.341/.404 with four homers and 17 RBI over his first 51 games at the Triple-A level this season. He'll function as the primary backup to Eduardo Nunez at shortstop over the next two weeks. | ||||||

Ramiro Pena has arrived in the Yankees' clubhouse and could be activated Tuesday night. | ||||||
The Yanks are waiting to see how Derek Jeter (calf) feels before making any sort of decision. It seems likely that the veteran shortstop will end up on the disabled list and that Pena will be officially recalled. | ||||||

This means Eduardo Nunez has secured the backup middle infield spot, which isn't much of a surprise. Pena could get a call-up if the Yankees suffer an injury in their infield. | ||||||

| Sat Aug 7 2010 | 19:21 | Pena drives in two in win over Red Sox | ||||
Ramiro Pena was 1-for-3 with two RBI and a stolen base in a win over the Red Sox on Saturday. | ||||||
Starting in place of Alex Rodriguez, who was scratched after being hit with a line drive during batting practice, Pena had an RBI groundout in the second inning and a run-scoring single in the sixth. Pena could earn another start or two if A-Rod has to miss any more time, but he's not worthy of your attention in even the deepest of formats. | ||||||
