The Giants signed Andrews to a minor-league contract on July 8.
EDGE Analysis
Andrews elected free agency rather than accepting an outright assignment by the Yankees late last month and has quickly caught on in a new organization. The left-handed reliever has already made one appearance in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League affiliate, allowing four runs while recording one out. He should eventually move up to Triple-A Sacramento.

Andrews elected free agency Wednesday in lieu of accepting an outright assignment.
EDGE Analysis
Last week, the Yankees moved Andrews off their 40-man roster for the second time this season. Andrews accepted an outright assignment to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre upon clearing waivers back in April, but he won't do the same this time around and will instead look to join an organization that can present him with a clearer path to the big leagues. The lefty reliever made 20 appearances this season at Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, posting a 5.84 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 28:22 K:BB in 24.2 innings.

The Yankees outrighted Andrews to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
It's the second time since April that Andrews has been outrighted after departing the Yankees' 40-man roster. Whether he accepts the assignment and remains in the organization or elects free agency is not yet known.

The Yankees designated Andrews for assignment Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
The transaction frees up a spot on the 40-man roster for the addition of lefty reliever Tim Hill, who was signed to a big-league contract. Andrews has allowed 11 earned runs in just 3.2 frames during his brief time in the majors.

The Yankees optioned Andrews to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre after Tuesday's game versus the Orioles.
EDGE Analysis
Andrews was brought up from the minors before Tuesday's game to help make up for the loss of Cody Poteet (triceps) and Ian Hamilton (lat), but he will now return to Triple-A without appearing in a game. The 27-year-old southpaw owns an unremarkable 5.84 ERA and 1.53 WHIP through 24.2 innings in the minor leagues and has allowed 11 earned runs in just 3.2 frames throughout his MLB career.

The Yankees recalled Andrews from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Andrews and Anthony Misiewicz will reinforce the Yankees' bullpen after Cody Poteet (triceps) and Ian Hamilton (lat) were placed on the injured list. Andrews has struggled at Triple-A this season, as he owns a 5.84 ERA and a 28:22 K:BB across 24 appearances. He also surrendered a home run in his only MLB appearance of 2024.

The Yankees optioned Andrews to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Andrews was selected from Triple-A earlier Tuesday, and he will now head back to the minors immediately following New York's loss to the Mariners -- though now he has a spot on the 40-man roster. The left-hander only pitched one-third of an inning against Seattle, allowing a solo home run to Luke Raley in the process. Although Andrews has been serviceable in the minors since being DFA'd in mid-April, his career 27.00 ERA through 3.2 big-league innings may cause the Yankees to look elsewhere if they need to rely on their organizational bullpen depth later in the year.

The Yankees selected Andrews' contract from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Andrews was scrubbed from the Yankees' 40-man roster last month but has worked his way back onto it and is back in the majors after holding a 3.97 ERA and 16:6 K:BB over his last 11.1 innings with Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. He'll operate in low-leverage spots.

The Yankees sent Andrews outright to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Andrews went unclaimed off waivers after being DFA'd by the Yankees on Monday, so he will officially remain within the organization. The 27-year-old southpaw has gotten off to a rough start in the minors, allowing six earned runs across 3.2 innings while striking out two batters and walking six.

Andrews was designated for assignment by the Yankees on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Andrews was acquired via trade in February but failed to make the Opening Day roster and had allowed six runs in his first 3.2 innings at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. Josh Maciejewski is taking his spot on the 40-man roster.
