Yanks release Stroman with Gil return imminent
The New York Yankees have released right-handed pitcher Marcus Stroman. Stroman, who signed a one-year, $11 million contract with the Yankees in the offseason, had a disappointing start to the season, going 3-2 with a 6.23 ERA in nine starts. The move comes as the Yankees are expecting the return of left-hander Nestor Gil, who has been sidelined with an injury. Gil's impending return likely played a role in the team's decision to part ways with Stroman. The release of Stroman, a veteran pitcher with a history of success in the major leagues, comes as a surprise to many. However, the Yankees' decision reflects their focus on optimizing their roster and preparing for the upcoming games.
