Randy Vasquez Likely to Start Wednesday
New York Yankees rookie right-hander Randy Vasquez is in the team's clubhouse on Tuesday and has a good chance to start on Wednesday against the Chicago White Sox in place of injured left-hander Nestor Cortes (shoulder), who is expected to land on the injured list. In his major-league debut against the San Diego Padres on May 26, Vasquez was hit with a loss when he allowed two runs on four hits (one homer) while walking three and striking out six in 4 2/3 innings of work. The club's No. 12 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, has gone 1-6 with a 5.13 ERA, 1.63 WHIP, 26 walks and 55 strikeouts in 10 starts for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in 2023. The matchup will be a better one for Vasquez in his second MLB start, and his strikeout upside could make him worth streaming consideration in deeper leagues.

Prospects New York Yankees Randy VasquezRandy Vasquez Optioned To Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre
New York Yankees starting pitcher Randy Vasquez was optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre after making his major league debut on Friday against the San Diego Padres. Vasquez allowed a pair of runs on four hits to go along with six strikeouts and three walks over 4 2/3 innings. The 24-year-old will get another chance with the big league club later this season and is a firm hold in dynasty leagues.

The New York Yankees officially released outfielder Aaron Hicks on Friday to make room for rookie right-hander Randy Vasquez, who will make his major-league debut on Friday in a start against the San Diego Padres. Hicks was designated for assignment last weekend and went unclaimed on waivers. The Yankees will now pay the majority of the remaining $27.6 million that remains on the 33-year-old's contract. Hicks has done very little offensively since hitting a career-high 27 home runs back in 2018 for the Yankees, and he's dealt with various injuries on top of the poor performances in recent seasons. In 28 games before he was cut this year, he hit just .188 (13-for-69) with two doubles, a homer, five RBI and 20 strikeouts. Hicks will most likely latch on with another team, but he's probably a long shot to return any fantasy value the rest of this year.

May 25 · MLB Trade Rumors Prospects New York Yankees Randy VasquezRandy Vasquez To Start For Yankees On Friday
New York Yankees rookie right-hander Randy Vasquez is with the team on Thursday and said the plan is for him to make his first major-league start on Friday in the Bronx against the visiting San Diego Padres. The team's No. 12 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, has gone 1-5 with a 4.85 ERA, 1.57 WHIP, 23 walks and 50 strikeouts in 42 2/3 innings over nine starts for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre so far in 2023. The 24-year-old has a nasty curveball and gets plenty of swings and misses, but we wouldn't advise fantasy managers to roll with him as a streamer, even though the Padres will likely be without star third baseman Manny Machado (hand) again on Friday. Control issues have raised concerns about whether Vasquez can remain in a starting role long-term in the big leagues.
