The Yankees optioned Chivilli to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre following Monday's 13-7 loss to the Cardinals.
New York will presumably call up another reliever from Triple-A to replace Chivilli, who was rocked for six earned runs on five hits and one walk while working an inning out of the bullpen Monday. The 24-year-old righty now owns a 3.78 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 16:7 K:BB in 16.2 innings in the big leagues this season.
