Carlos Lagrange of the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders is adapting to a new role in the bullpen after previously starting games in Triple-A. The right-hander has a 4.41 ERA over 49 innings, striking out 29% of batters while struggling with command, evident in his 11.5% walk rate. Recently, he showed improvement in control, throwing 21 strikes out of 30 fastballs in his last outing, posting a season-high 5.2 innings pitched. As Lagrange continues to develop, the Yankees may consider calling him up this summer if he adjusts well to relief pitching.
