Yankees bring Chris Carter back up after he clears waivers
The New York Yankees purchased the contract of first baseman Chris Carter from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.
What It Means:
Carter is back in the majors just a day after clearing waivers and accepting an assignment to Triple-A, of which he didn't play a game. This move likely means Tyler Austin (hamstring) is headed to the disabled list.
Through 189 plate appearances (57 games) this season, Carter is slashing .204/.286/.383 with 8 home runs and 23 RBI.
