OF Clint Frazier is being called up to serve as the 26th man for tomorrow’s doubleheader against the Tigers, reports George King. I’m guessing the Yankees were originally planning to call up a pitcher as the 26th man, but today’s rainout means they don’t need a spot starter, and it means the bullpen will be rested. Frazier might get to start both games tomorrow. That’d be fun.

High-A Tampa Tarpons (7-5 win over Dunedin)
