Yankees' Scott Effross: Receives September call-up
The New York Yankees recalled Scott Effross from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Sunday.Effross's next appearance with the Yankees will be his first since Oct. 3, 2022, as he missed the team's playoff run that season due to an elbow injury that required Tommy John surgery. He likely would have been fully cleared for the start of spring training this year, but he underwent back surgery this past winter that prevented him from beginning a rehab assignment until late June. Once Effross was activated from the 60-day injured list over the All-Star break, the Yankees optioned him to Triple-A, where he's flourished in recent weeks. Dating back to Aug. 1, Effross has posted a 1.42 ERA, 0.79 WHIP and 12:2 K:BB in 12.2 innings. He'll likely have to settle for low-leverage work out of the Yankees' bullpen initially but could push his way into a more meaningful role if he fares well.

Yankees' Scott Effross: Expected back in majors soon
New York Yankees pitching coach Matt Blake said Tuesday that Scott Effross has "thrown the ball really well lately" at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre and should be recalled soon, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.In addition to allowing just two runs in eight innings this month, Effross' velocity has ticked back up, and he's "been bouncing back" from outings well, per Blake. Effross last appeared in the majors in 2022 and has had Tommy John and back surgeries since then. He could provide a big boost to the New York bullpen down the stretch if he can regain the form that allowed him to post a 2.54 ERA and 62:15 K:BB over 56.2 frames for the Cubs and Yankees in 2022.
