Today 40 man rosters had to be upgraded prior to the Rule 5 Draft. The Yankees made some interesting moves which made some fans happy. Jacoby Ellsbury (about time, when did he last play???? ) has been released. Greg BIrd (has been plagued with injuries in recent years) and Nestor Cortes, Jr. were DFA'd..
Minor leaguers protected & moved to the 40 man: OF Estevan Florial, RHP Deivi GarcĂa, RHP Luis Gil, RHP Brooks Kriske, RHP Luis Medina, RHP Nick Nelson and RHP Miguel Yajure to the Major League roster. The 2020 New York Yankee roster begins - the quest for 28 continues.
