Yankees' Luis Cessa: Returns to New York

Cessa will be recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre prior to Thursday's game against the Red Sox, DJ Eberle of the Times Leader News reports.

Cessa was sent down to the minors Thursday after the Yankees acquired J.A. Happ from the Blue Jays. It's unclear how New York will choose to use Cessa, although he'll likely start Saturday's matchup against Boston if Happ (illness) can't go. Cessa owns a 3.10 ERA and 1.13 WHIP with 16 strikeouts over 20.1 frames in 2018.
