Yankees' Carlos Lagrange: Racking up Ks at Double-A
Rotowire
Lagrange has a 2.61 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 34:15 K:BB in 20.2 innings over his last four starts for Double-A Somerset.
The 22-year-old righty was surprisingly assigned to High-A Hudson Valley to begin the year, even though he had an 18.8 percent walk rate at Single-A Tampa in 2024. Lagrange was up for the challenge, logging a 4.10 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 64:12 K:BB in 41.2 innings at High-A before getting promoted to Double-A on June 3. Even during his stretches of dominance, walks can be a problem for Lagrange, as he's given up more walks than hits in three straight starts.

Yankees' Carlos Lagrange: Makes 2024 debut
Rotowire
Lagrange (undisclosed) was reinstated from the 7-day injured list Saturday and made his season debut for the Yankees' rookie-level Florida Complex League affiliate, covering 1.2 innings and giving up one run on two hits and one walk. He struck out two.
The 21-year-old right-hander wasn't particularly sharp in his 2024 debut, but the Yankees are likely just happy to see him back on the mound again. Lagrange is expected to steadily ramp up his pitch count over his subsequent outings in the FCL before eventually advancing to Single-A Tampa later this season.

Yankees' Carlos Lagrange: On shelf with undisclosed injury
Rotowire
Lagrange is on the Florida Complex League Yankees' 7-day injured list with an undisclosed injury.
A 6-foot-7 righty with a monster fastball, Lagrange logged a 4.97 ERA, 1.39 WHIP and 63 strikeouts in 41.2 innings in the Florida Complex League last season. Given that he turns 21 later this month, Lagrange would ideally make his full-season debut at some point later this season, health permitting.
