According to MLB.com correspondent and Trenton Thunder beat writer, Matt Kardos, the Yankees are reportedly calling-up relief pitcher Giovanny Gallegos to join the big league roster.

As the Bronx Bombers return home for a four-game series against the Houston Astros, they could definitely use a fresh arm in the bullpen. The 25-year-old will get his first crack at the big league level, and is well-deserving of the promotion. Gallegos has been a very productive reliever over last few seasons. In 2016, the right-hander posted a 1.27 ERA in 42 games, striking out 106 batters in just 78 innings. The Bronx Pinstripes team will continue to update for any news and updates surrounding the New York Yankees.
