The Yankees have designated righty Danny Burawa for assignment, the club announced. New York needed a 40-man spot after re-signing Garrett Jones.
Burawa, 26, reached the big leagues for the first time this year, though his only appearance did not go well. He has put up 60 1/3 solid innings at the Triple-A level, however, with a 2.69 ERA. Burawa notched only 7.8 K/9 against 4.5 BB/9, but has allowed a meager 6.3 hits per nine.
