3 years agoThe New York Yankees recalled right-hander Luis Gil from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in order for him to start on Thursday night against the Chicago White Sox. The 23-year-old Dominican made his first six major league starts in pinstripes last year, posting a solid 3.07 ERA and 1.33 WHIP with 19 walks and 38 strikeouts in 29 1/3 innings pitched. He's ranked by MLB Pipeline as the team's No. 10 prospect. However, he wasn't sharp on the farm before the call-up, allowing 18 earned runs on 18 hits (five homers allowed) while walking 12 and striking out 25 in five starts covering 17 innings. Gil's control could become a problem really quickly in the big leagues if he continues to hand out free passes, and the White Sox are a dangerous opponent.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
