CHICAGO (AP) The New York Yankees have placed reliever Diego Moreno on the 15-day disabled list with right elbow inflammation.
The Yankees also recalled right-hander Branden Pinder from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre before Sunday’s game against the Chicago White Sox. The rookie has no record and a 2.92 ERA in 11 appearances with New York this year.
Moreno allowed four runs and four hits in three innings in the Yankees’ 8-2 loss to the White Sox on Saturday. Manager Joe Girardi says Moreno will be examined by team physician Dr. Christopher Ahmad on Monday.
Right fielder Carlos Beltran was back in the lineup after missing Saturday’s game with a sore left foot. Beltran is batting .261 with eight homers and 33 RBIs in 76 games.
