Yankees Option Luis Gil to Triple-A After Struggling Against Astros

The New York Yankees optioned RHP Luis Gil to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre following a difficult performance in Sunday's 7-4 loss to the Houston Astros. Gil, who holds a 1-1 record and 4.11 ERA, struggled for the third time in four starts, notably lacking swing-and-miss stuff and allowing hard contact. The move aims to find more consistency from the mound after his early-game difficulties ended the Yankees' eight-game winning streak and prevented a series sweep despite a late rally.
