Yankees placed RHP Sergio Mitre on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to July 16, with right shoulder tendinitis. Mitre has been sick over the past few days, so he was likely going to be unavailable in the short-term, anyway. The 30-year-old right-hander has allowed nine runs (seven earned) on nine hits over 5 1/3 innings since being reacquired by the Yankees at the end of June. Steve Garrison has replaced him on the active roster.
