How Yankees plan to fill rotation opening after dumping Carlos Carrasco

The New York Yankees chose to designate experienced pitcher Carlos Carrasco for assignment on Tuesday, opening a spot in their starting rotation.
Carrasco's 5.91 ERA this year, along with injuries to key starters Cole, Gil, and Schmidt, led to roster adjustments and the need for bullpen coverage.
The Yankees plan to fill the rotation spot primarily with Allan Winans, who has not allowed a run in four outings and has pitched over 14 innings this season.
Manager Aaron Boone said, "Just felt like we needed to do this," and indicated Carrasco "may be back here" depending on upcoming games.
This decision reflects the Yankees' urgent need for reliable pitching depth while maintaining flexibility if Carrasco clears waivers and returns to the team.
