Optioned to Triple-A Florial was optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Sunday.

Impact Florial was with the Yankees in big-league camp but unsurprisingly won't open the season in the majors. He went 6-for-20 in 11 major-league games last season but spent most of 2021 at Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, where he had a .719 OPS in 78 contests.

Optioned to Triple-A Florial was optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Wednesday.

Impact Florial was called up Sunday, but he didn't log any plate appearances during his time with the major-league club. He'll now head back to the minors after Domingo German (shoulder) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list Wednesday.

Rejoins big-league club Florial was recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Sunday, Brendan Kuty of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.

Impact Florial will join the Yankees ahead of Sunday's series finale against Cleveland as outfield depth with Joey Gallo managing neck tightness. Florial is 6-for-20 with a home run, two RBI, three runs and a stolen base in nine major-league games this season, and he's unlikely to see significant run as long as the rest of the outfield remains healthy.

Impact Florial joined the major-league club Wednesday and will return to the minors without appearing in a game. The 23-year-old has played in nine games for the Yankees this year and is 6-for-20 with a homer, two doubles, two RBI, three runs and a stolen base.

Recalled by Yankees Florial was recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Wednesday.

Impact Florial has had limited playing time in the majors this year, but he'll return to the Yankees as outfield depth. The 23-year-old was sent down Aug. 21 and hit .263 with four doubles, seven runs, four RBI and two stolen bases across nine minor-league games since then.

Sent back down Florial was optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre following Saturday's win over the Twins.

Impact Florial was called up to serve as depth in center field with Brett Gardner (arm) out of the lineup Saturday, and he appeared as a pinch runner. However, the 23-year-old will head back to the minors, where he should receive more consistent playing time.

Recalled by Yankees Florial was recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Saturday.

Impact The 23-year-old spent just over a week with the minor-league club, and he went 5-for-16 with three doubles, two runs and two RBI across his last four games at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. Brett Gardner is dealing with soreness after he was hit by a pitch Friday, so Florial will be available as outfield depth.

Returns to minors Florial was optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Friday.

Impact Florial served as the 27th man for Thursday's "Field of Dream" contest, and he'll return to the minors after not appearing in the game. The 23-year-old has a .990 OPS in 25 plate appearances for the Yankees this season, but he's unlikely to have much of a role down the stretch with the outfield bolstered by the acquisition of Joey Gallo at the trade deadline.

Optioned back to Triple-A Florial was optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Thursday.

Impact Florial has been now been optioned twice in the last three days, this time to make room on the roster for the acquisition of Anthony Rizzo. He could return again to fill a depth role in the outfield, though his path to playing time became more complicated with the recent additions made by the club.

Judge hits tiebreaking single in 10th, Yankees beat Rays 3-1

Aaron Judge went from being a late scratch to hitting a tiebreaking single in a two-run 10th inning as the New York Yankees beat the Tampa Bay Rays for the second straight day, 3-1

Returns to majors Florial was recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Wednesday.

Impact Florial will return to the major-league roster just one day after he was sent down. The 23-year-old has gone 5-for-17 with a home run, two doubles, three runs, two RBI and a stolen base across six games with the Yankees this year.

JULY 28, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Optioned to Triple-A The Yankees optioned Florial to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday.

Impact Florial appeared in five games during this latest big-leagues stint, going 4-for-14 with a home run, two RBI and three runs. He returns to the minor leagues now that Aaron Judge (COVID-19) is back with the Yankees. Barring injuries or COVID-19 infections, it seems unlikely Florial will see any more major-league time in 2021.

Out again against lefty Florial is not in the starting lineup Tuesday against the Rays and left-hander Shane McClanahan, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

Impact Florial has gotten regular time against right-handers in recent days, but he'll retreat to the bench against the southpaw Tuesday. With Aaron Judge (illness) back from the COVID-19 IL, it's possible that Florial sees less time even against right-handers, though it's not yet clear how the Yankees plan to utilize the rookie going forward.

Sits versus lefty Florial is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox.

Impact The lefty-hitting Florial had started in center field in four of the past five contests, but he'll cede his spot in the outfield to the righty-hitting Ryan LaMarre with a southpaw (Martin Perez) on the mound. Florial should continue to hold down a near-everyday role for the Yankees until the team gets Aaron Judge (illness) back from the COVID-19 injured list during the upcoming week.

Starting again in CF Florial will start in center field and bat eighth Thursday against the Red Sox.

Impact Florial is picking up his third consecutive start, and he looks poised to stick in a near-everyday role at least until the Yankees get one of Aaron Judge (COVID-19), Clint Frazier (eye), Trey Amburgey (hamstring) or Miguel Andujar (wrist) back from the injured list. Over the past two games, Florial has gone 2-for-6 with a home run, a stolen base, two walks, two RBI and two runs.
