Yankees add Luis Garcia Jr. to roster amid roster changes

On August 3, the New York Yankees made multiple roster moves before facing the St. Louis Cardinals. Newly acquired first baseman Luis Garcia Jr. has been added following the trade with the Washington Nationals, although his starting status remains uncertain. Right-hander Kervin Castro was promoted from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre to fill a bullpen opening. Infielder/outfielder Max Schuemann has been optioned to the same Triple-A team after contributing off the bench. The Yankees continue to seek more hitters ahead of Monday's trade deadline due to offensive struggles without Aaron Judge.
