Trey Amburgey - Activated, returns to minorsAmburgey (hamstring) was activated from the 10-day injured list and optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Wednesday.
ImpactIt's not a surprising move, as Amburgey landed on the shelf July 20 and the Yankees shored up their lineup at the trade deadline. The 26-year-old made his big-league debut and appeared in two games, going 0-for-4 with a pair of strikeouts. He has an .893 OPS at Scranton/Wilkes-Barre this season, and he'll remain with the RailRiders after completing his five-game rehab assignment.

ImpactNelson appeared in one game after being recalled Aug. 9 and threw a one inning with two walks and an unearned run. With an 8.79 ERA and 2.16 WHIP through 14.1 innings this season, the righty doesn't figure to see another big-league opportunity unless an injuries or another illness outbreak creates numerous roster openings.
