TYLER WADE NEWS

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

Impact Wade had been with the major-league club for over two months, but he saw sporadic playing time and had started in just two games since May 31. He's hit .224 with a triple, 14 runs, four stolen bases and two RBI in the big leagues this year. The 26-year-old could see more at-bats in the minors, while left-hander Wandy Peralta will remain on the active roster after he served as the 27th man for Sunday's twin bill against the Mets.

Swipes third bag Wade stole second base and scored as a pinch-runner in Tuesday's 6-5 win over the Blue Jays.

Impact Wade was summoned for his speed in the eighth inning of a tie game. He pinch ran for Miguel Andujar and wasted little time stealing second, then came around to score the decisive run on Clint Frazier's double. In addition to his three thefts on the season, Wade is slashing .250/.302/.300 with 10 runs and two RBI.

Triples in low-scoring win Wade went 1-for-2 with an RBI triple and a run scored in Wednesday's 2-0 win over the Rangers.

Impact Wade was called upon to enter the game in the third inning after Ryan LaMarre had to be taken out with an apparent right hamstring injury. The 26-year-old Wade came through in the sixth with an RBI triple on a sharply hit ball that rolled all the way to the wall in right-center field. He later would trot home to put the Yankees up 2-0 on a sac fly to left. The RBI was his first of the season and he could see some increased opportunities coming up with the outfield decimated by injuries.

Three hits in big win Wade went 3-for-4 with a run scored in Saturday's 8-2 win over the Orioles.

Impact Getting another start at shortstop in place of Gleyber Torres (COVID-19) and batting ninth, Wade doubled his hit total with his first multi-hit performance of the year. The utility infielder's .316 batting average looks good and he has scored five runs in only 21 plate appearances, but he's still looking for his first homer -- or even just his first RBI -- of the season and is 0-for-2 on stolen base attempts, including a caught stealing Saturday.

Recalled Tuesday Wade was recalled prior to Tuesday's game against the Orioles, Pete Caldera of The Bergen Record reports.

Impact He will take the place of Mike Tauchman, who was traded to the Giants, on the Yankees' bench. Wade has gone 1-for-3 while appearing in six games this season.

Candidate for call-up Wade is seen as an option to be promoted to the big-league roster from the Yankees' alternate training site, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

Impact Wade spent the early part of the season on the active roster, going 1-for-3 and serving primarily as a pinch runner and late-inning replacement before being shipped to the alternate site April 10. Jay Bruce's retirement Sunday leaves open an empty roster spot and a need for a backup first baseman, though Mike Ford might be the most logical candidate for the role. Wade has yet to play first base in the majors, spending most of his time in the middle infield and in the outfield.

Optioned to Triple-A Wade was optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Saturday, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

Impact Wade won a spot on the Opening Day roster and went 1-for-3 with two runs and a strikeout to begin the season. He'll be removed from the active roster to make room for Rougned Odor, who was activated in a corresponding move. Wade will join the Yankees' taxi squad going forward, while Gio Urshela will now serve as the backup shortstop behind Gleyber Torres.

Wins roster spot Wade's spot on the Opening Day roster was confirmed by general manager Brian Cashman on Monday, Brendan Kuty of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.

Impact Wade doesn't have a path to regular playing time, but his defensive versatility (he's appeared everywhere other than pitcher, catcher and first base) makes him a fine fit for the end of the bench. The Yankees have plenty of injury-prone players ahead of him, which opens up multiple avenues for at-bats, though the career .190/.274/.301 hitter wouldn't have much fantasy appeal even as an everyday starter.

Appears set for Opening Day roster Wade is likely to open the season with a big-league bench spot, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

Impact Wade has been battling for a roster spot throughout spring training but hasn't exactly impressed, hitting .194 with 14 strikeouts in 36 at-bats. However, he has notched two stolen bases, and his speed and versatility are likely the two factors that most played into the Yankees' decision to keep him with the big club. While Wade's place on the Opening Day roster hasn't yet been confirmed, Hoch notes that the releases of Derek Dietrich and Robinson Chirinos (wrist) seem to make the decision apparent.
