Yankees' Trey Amburgey: Activated, returns to minors

Amburgey (hamstring) was activated from the 10-day injured list and optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Wednesday.

It's not a surprising move, as Amburgey landed on the shelf July 20 and the Yankees shored up their lineup at the trade deadline. The 26-year-old made his big-league debut and appeared in two games, going 0-for-4 with a pair of strikeouts. He has an .893 OPS at Scranton/Wilkes-Barre this season, and he'll remain with the RailRiders after completing his five-game rehab assignment.
