Yankees' Elmer Rodriguez: Dispatched to minors camp
The Yankees optioned Rodriguez to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Monday.
Rodriguez made two Grapefruit League starts this spring, allowing two runs with a 5:1 K:BB over six frames. The 22-year-old grabbed a spot on the Yankees' 40-man roster this offseason, and he figures to be needed in their rotation at some point this summer.

Yankees' Elmer Rodriguez-Cruz: Added to 40-man roster
The Yankees selected Rodriguez-Cruz's contract from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday.
Rodriguez-Cruz reached Triple-A at the very end of the 2025 season after beginning the year at High-A Hudson Valley. He finished the season with a 2.51 ERA and 1.06 WHIP with a 176:57 K:BB through 150.1 innings across three different affiliates. The 22-year-old righty will most likely return to Scranton/Wilkes-Barre to begin the 2026 campaign, though he will be a candidate to make his MLB debut at some point next year if he continues to dominate against minor-league hitters.

Yankees' Elmer Rodriguez-Cruz: Moving up to Triple-A
Rodriguez-Cruz will be promoted from Double-A Somerset to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Saturday, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.
Rodriguez-Cruz earned the late-season promotion after posting a 2.42 ERA and 173:57 K:BB over 145 innings between High-A Hudson Valley and Somerset. Acquired from the Red Sox last offseason in the Carlos Narvaez trade, Rodriguez-Cruz leads all minor leaguers with his 173 strikeouts.

Yankees' Elmer Rodriguez-Cruz: Pushing 130 innings
Rodriguez-Cruz has a 3.18 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 51:15 K:BB in 45.1 innings through eight starts for Double-A Somerset.
Rodriguez-Cruz has been a prospect of note since his time in Boston's system -- he was traded to the Yankees this past offseason for Carlos Narvaez -- but this has certainly been a breakout season for the 6-foot-3 righty. He was promoted to Double-A on July 11 after stifling High-A hitters to the tune of a 2.26 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 99 strikeouts in 83.2 innings. Rodriguez-Cruz has a full arsenal of quality pitches, led by his sinker and sweeper, and his 8.1 percent walk rate at Double-A is the best mark of his career. He has also logged 129 innings this year -- almost 40 more than his prior career high of 89.2 innings in 2024.

Yankees' Elmer Rodriguez-Cruz: Traded to Pinstripes
The Red Sox traded Rodriguez-Cruz to the Yankees on Wednesday in exchange for Carlos Narvaez, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.
Over 20 games (19 starts) between Single-A and High-A in 2024, Rodriguez-Cruz turned in a 2.84 ERA and 1.19 WHIP alongside a 99:39 K:BB over 85.2 innings. The 21-year-old right-hander will likely remain in High-A with his new organization and have his sights set on a promotion to Double-A Somerset.

Red Sox's Elmer Rodriguez-Cruz: Promoted to High-A
The Red Sox promoted Rodriguez-Cruz from Single-A Salem to High-A Greenville on Tuesday.
The 20-year-old right-hander excelled in his second go-around at Salem, turning in a 2.51 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 18.8 K-BB% over 61 innings. He'll presumably step into the Greenville rotation along with left-hander Noah Dean, who was also promoted from Salem on Tuesday.
