The Yankees have designated David Aardsma for assignment, according to Andy McCullough of the Star-Ledger (on Twitter). The Bombers felt that the right-hander couldn't really provide them distance out of the bullpen and manager Joe Girardi said that he "didn't really fit" on the roster.
Aardsma, 31, underwent Tommy John surgery two years ago but has looked healthy so far this spring. For his career, the right-hander owns a 4.22 ERA with 9.1 K/9 and 5.1 BB/9.
