The New York Yankees have outrighted outfielder Taylor Trammell to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre after he cleared waivers following his recent designation for assignment.

By the Numbers
  • Trammell was selected 35th overall by the Reds in 2016.
  • In his last four MLB seasons, he has a batting line of .167/.270/.363 over 359 plate appearances.
  • At the Triple-A level since the start of 2021, he has hit 38 home runs with a batting line of .274/.381/.506 and a wRC+ of 116.
Yes, But

Trammell has shown potential in the minors but has struggled to perform consistently in the big leagues, leading to multiple designations for assignment.

State of Play
  • Trammell has been sent to Triple-A and will aim to earn his way back to the majors.
  • He is in his first outright and does not have the right to elect free agency due to lack of three years of service time.
What's Next

Trammell will report to the RailRiders and focus on regaining his form to potentially return to the major league level.

Bottom Line

Despite Trammell's struggles in the big leagues, his strong minor league performance and past prospect pedigree still attract interest from teams as he works towards earning another shot in the majors.
