The Yankees reinstated Trevino (quad) from the 10-day injured list Thursday.
Manager Aaron Boone said earlier Thursday that Trevino would be activated off the IL ahead of Friday's series opener against the Tigers, and the Yankees have now made the roster move official during the team's day off. The 31-year-old catcher will work as a backup while Austin Wells continues to receive the majority of starts behind the dish, and Carlos Narvaez will be optioned back to Triple-A in order to clear a roster spot.
