Poteet is expected to join the Yankees and could be formally recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre ahead of Wednesday's game against the Orioles, Jack Curry of YES Network reports.

Nestor Cortes had been scheduled to start Wednesday, but after being sent in for an MRI on his elbow, he now appears unlikely to be available. Poteet will be a candidate to pitch in some capacity Wednesday if he's recalled, though the Yankees could prefer to keep him on hand as a member of the taxi squad while they await more information on Cortes' injury. Poteet has made four starts for the Yankees this season, collecting a 2.14 ERA and 13:7 K:BB over 21 innings.
