The Yankees optioned Beeter to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Thursday.
Beeter is clearing out to make room for Rico Garcia, who was officially added to the roster after being claimed off waivers earlier this week. The 26-year-old Beeter made two appearances during his stint in the majors, getting tagged for six runs with a 1:4 K:BB over 3.2 innings.
The Yankees recalled Beeter from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday.
The right-hander was optioned to Triple-A on Thursday but is quickly back with the Yankees since Mark Leiter (leg) was placed on the injured list. Beeter allowed three earned runs over 1.2 frames during his lone appearance in the majors this season.

Rotowire
Beeter was optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Thursday, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.
Beeter was called up for his 2025 debut with the Yankees on Wednesday, and he allowed three earned runs across 1.2 innings Thursday against Toronto. He'll now head back to the minors and should serve as depth for the big-league club the rest of the season.
The Yankees recalled Beeter from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Wednesday.
Beeter has offered a mixed bag at Scranton/Wilkes-Barre after returning from a shoulder injury, posting a 1.02 ERA with 29 strikeouts over 17.2 innings but also issuing 14 walks. He has a chance to work his way into high-leverage spots for the Yankees, but Beeter is likely to be used earlier in games initially.
The Yankees activated Beeter (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list Friday and optioned him to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.
Beeter is over his right shoulder impingement, but the Yankees have elected to keep him at Scranton-Wilkes-Barre -- where he had been on a rehab assignment -- for now. The righty has permitted four runs with a 13:7 K:BB over 8.2 rehab innings.

Yankees' Clayton Beeter: Begins rehab assignment
Rotowire
Beeter (shoulder) struck out all four batters he faced in his first rehab appearance with Single-A Tampa on Sunday.
It was a good start for Beeter, who should move up to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre eventually before being activated from the 15-day injured list. Beeter did not make any spring training appearances, so it could be a relatively lengthy rehab assignment.

Yankees' Clayton Beeter: Placed on IL
Rotowire
The Yankees placed Beeter on the 15-day injured list Wednesday due to right shoulder impingement syndrome.
General manager Brian Cashman said last weekend that the Yankees expect Beeter to be out "a while," so the right-hander's move to the IL isn't much of a surprise. He remains without a clear return timeline but may receive one once he is cleared to face live hitters.

Yankees' Clayton Beeter: Out indefinitely
Rotowire
General manager Brian Cashman said Saturday that Beeter (shoulder) will be out "a while," Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.
While Cashman's comments don't exactly offer the clearest return timeline, it doesn't seem like Beeter is expected back anytime soon. The right-hander has been battling an issue in his throwing shoulder since the start of camp and seemingly hasn't progressed past throwing bullpen sessions.

Yankees' Clayton Beeter: Not expected for Opening Day
Rotowire
Beeter (shoulder) is not expected to be ready in time for Opening Day, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.
Beeter has not appeared in a Grapefruit League game because of a right shoulder problem. He had been throwing off a mound, but it's not clear whether he might have suffered a setback. Beeter has been converted to reliever and could work his way into an important role in the Yankees' bullpen, once healthy.

Yankees' Clayton Beeter: Moving to relief full-time
Rotowire
The Yankees have moved Beeter to the bullpen on a permanent basis, Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports.
Beeter has primarily been a starter in the minors, but he moved to the bullpen last September at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre and finished the year with two relief appearances for the Yankees. The righty has always had big stuff, but with a career 12.7 percent walk rate in the minors, a shift to relief always seemed likely. Beeter will probably begin the 2025 season at Scranton/Wilkes-Barre but could eventually be an option for the Yankees' bullpen. The 26-year-old is a little behind at the start of camp due to a shoulder issue that dates back to last season, but he has been throwing off a mound.
Beeter has been dealing with a right shoulder injury but has resumed throwing bullpen sessions, Brendan Kuty of The Athletic reports.
Beeter missed time with a shoulder injury last season in the minors, too, but the Yankees are hopeful the righty is close to putting the issue in the rearview mirror. That said, it might be a bit before Beeter is cleared to appear in Grapefruit League games. The 26-year-old has primarily been a starter in the minors but is under consideration for an Opening Day bullpen role.

Yankees' Clayton Beeter: Recalled to big club
Rotowire
The Yankees recalled Beeter from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Sunday.
Beeter will come up to replace Jake Cousins (pectoral), who landed on the 15-day injured list. The right-handed Beeter was at one point feared lost for the season due to a shoulder injury, but he was able to return to action in the minors earlier this month. He allowed just one hit over four scoreless innings after rejoining Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

Yankees' Clayton Beeter: Activated, sent to Double-A
Rotowire
Beeter (shoulder) was reinstated from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre's 60-day injured list Saturday and was assigned to Double-A Somerset.
Beeter proceeded to appear out of the Somerset bullpen later that day, striking out two and allowing one hit and no walks over a scoreless inning. The right-hander had turned in a 2.53 ERA over 32 innings with Scranton/Wilkes-Barre before hitting the shelf in May with a right shoulder injury.

Yankees' Clayton Beeter: Moved to minor-league 60-day IL
Rotowire
Beeter (shoulder) was transferred from the 7-day injured list to the 60-day IL at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on July 22.
Beeter last pitched for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on May 15, and he was subsequently transferred to the 7-day IL due to a shoulder injury. Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said July 9 that the 25-year-old was in danger of missing the remainder of the season, so it's not surprising to see him transferred to the 60-day IL. Beeter had been pitching well prior to getting hurt, posting a 2.53 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 44:21 K:BB over 32 innings for the Triple-A club. He also got into one game for the Yankees, allowing one hit in a scoreless inning versus Houston on March 29.

Yankees' Clayton Beeter: Could miss rest of season
Rotowire
Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said Tuesday that Beeter will visit a specialist for his right shoulder injury and could miss the rest of the season, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.
Prior to landing on Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre's 7-day injured list May 21, Beeter went 3-1 with a 2.53 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 44:21 K:BB over 32 innings in seven starts. Beeter's upcoming meeting with a specialist should help determine whether he needs surgery on his shoulder, or if he can continue to treat the injury through rest and rehab. A firmer timeline for his eventual return to the Triple-A rotation should become available within the next several days.

Yankees' Clayton Beeter: Lands on injured list
Rotowire
Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre placed Beeter on its 7-day injured list Tuesday with an unspecified injury, Conor Foley of YES Network reports.
It's unclear when Beeter suffered the injury, but he last pitched for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on May 15, when he struck out three and walked five over four scoreless innings. The right-hander will be unavailable for at least the next week.

Yankees' Clayton Beeter: Tosses scoreless frame in debut
Rotowire
Beeter allowed one hit in a scoreless ninth inning during Friday's game against Houston.
Beeter's MLB debut came in the bottom of the ninth frame with New York up 7-1. His first pitch was grounded by Jose Altuve to right field for a single, but Beeter then induced a one-pitch double play groundout off the bat of Yordan Alvarez before getting Kyle Tucker to fly out on one pitch. Altogether, Beeter needed just three pitches to get through the frame. The right-hander didn't win a starting job out of camp despite a strong spring training, but he made the Opening Day roster as a long reliever and could be first in line to move into a starting role should another injury hit the Yankees' rotation.
