Nick Burdi - Loses 40-man spot The Yankees designated Burdi for assignment Saturday.
Impact Burdi has allowed four runs (three earned) across 9.2 innings since being activated off the IL and optioned to Triple-A in August. Despite his success, he'll be squeezed off the 40-man roster in order to make room for Clarke Schmidt (lat) and Ian Hamilton (lat), both of whom returned from the 60-day IL on Saturday.

Phil Bickford - Pushed off 40-man The Yankees designated Bickford for assignment Saturday.
Impact With Clarke Schmidt (lat) and Ian Hamilton (lat) both returning from the 60-day IL, Bickford and Nick Burdi will both lose their spots on the Yankees' 40-man roster. Bickford appeared in three games for the Yankees after being selected to the active roster Aug. 25, striking out two batters across 3.1 scoreless innings, although he still owns an 8.64 ERA in the big leagues this season.

Ian Hamilton - Back from injured list The Yankees reinstated Hamilton (lat) from the 60-day injured list Saturday.
Impact A right lat strain has kept Hamilton sidelined since mid-June, but he'll now return to New York's bullpen after throwing four scoreless innings during a rehab assignment while striking out six batters and walking none. The 29-year-old righty posted a 4.55 ERA and 1.58 WHIP across 29.2 big-league frames before getting injured and will likely be used in middle relief as he adjusts to facing major-league hitters again. With Clarke Schmidt (lat) also returning from the 60-day IL, both Phil Bickford and Nick Burdi were DFA'd in corresponding moves.

Clarke Schmidt - Reinstated from IL The Yankees reinstated Schmidt (lat) from the 60-day injured list Saturday.
Impact After being held out since May due to a strained right lat, Schmidt will now return to the Yankees' rotation and start Saturday's game against the Cubs. The 28-year-old righty made three rehab games in the minors, allowing three earned runs and posting an 18:2 K:BB through 11.1 innings. He was only able to get up to 70 pitches during his most recent outing, however, so there's a good chance he makes a relatively early exit during his first start back in the majors. Ian Hamilton (lat) will return from the 60-day IL alongside Schmidt, pushing Phil Bickford and Nick Burdi off the 40-man roster.

Austin Wells - Plates two runs in return Wells went 1-for-3 with a walk and two RBI in Friday's 3-0 win against the Cubs.
Impact Wells returned from a two-game absence that followed taking a hit-by-pitch on the hand Monday. The backstop accounted for the bulk of New York's scoring Friday with a two-run single in the third inning. Now that he's back in action, Wells will likely start behind the plate most of the time the Yankees face a right-handed starter while Jose Trevino is expected to get the call against most southpaws.

Luis Gil - Stellar in return Gil (13-6) earned the win Friday over the Cubs, allowing one hit and two walks over six scoreless innings. He struck out seven.
Impact After missing two weeks with lower-back discomfort, Gil was excellent in his return Friday, holding the Cubs to just one hit in the winning effort. It's an encouraging effort from the 26-year-old Gil, who had allowed seven runs over seven innings in two starts prior to his IL stint. He had also issued 16 walks in his previous 17.1 frames. Overall, Gil sports a 3.24 ERA across 130.2 innings this season with a 1.16 WHIP and 151:68 K:BB. He currently lines up for a home matchup with the Royals in his next outing.

Ron Marinaccio - Sent down to minors Marinaccio was optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre after Friday's game against the Cubs.
Impact The move opens up a spot for Clarke Schmidt (lat), who will return from the 60-day injured list to start Saturday in Chicago. Marinaccio has been more than serviceable for the Yankees this season, but he continues to bounced between levels as the Yankees take full advantage of the roster flexibility provided by his minor-league option.

Luke Weaver - Nabs first career save Weaver worked around a walk in a scoreless ninth inning against the Cubs on Friday en route to his first career save. He struck out two batters.
Impact Isaac Paredes made Weaver work for the final out, but Weaver ultimately shut the door on his 25th pitch to earn the first save of his nine-year MLB career. Aaron Boone said earlier in the week that the club would get "creative" with the closer role in light of Clay Holmes' struggles in the ninth inning, and while Weaver has not been part of the saves mix until now, he leads the team in holds and would appear to have the leg up for save chances down the stretch.
