Yankees optioned RHP Adam Warren, INF Corban Joseph and OF Zoilo Almonte to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. | ||||||

| Fri Mar 16 2012 | 20:49 | Yankees make series of cuts | ||||
Yankees optioned OF Zoilo Almonte and INF David Adams to Double-A Trenton; optioned OF Melky Mesa and INF Corban Joseph to Triple-A Scranton. | ||||||
The Yankees also reassigned left-hander Manny Banuelos, right-handers Dan Burawa, RHP Brett Marshall, Adam Miller, Ryan Pope, Graham Stoneburner and Chase Whitley, catchers Kyle Higashioka, J.R. Murphy and Gary Sanchez to minor league camp. Banuelos is the organization's top prospect now that Jesus Montero is in Seattle and while the Yankees' have plenty of starting pitching depth at the moment, he could be major-league ready at some point this summer. | ||||||

Almonte batted .276/.345/.459 with 15 homers and 18 steals between High- and Double-A this season. He's an unexciting talent but one the Yankees felt they couldn't lose in the Rule 5 draft. | ||||||
