"The Yankees have claimed outfielder Marco Luciano off waivers from the Orioles, according to announcements from both clubs."
"The Yankees technically have a 40-man spot open for this claim but their agreement to re-sign Cody Bellinger is not yet official."
"This moves fills up the 40-man, so a corresponding move will now be required for Bellinger."
The New York Yankees claimed outfielder Marco Luciano off waivers from the Baltimore Orioles. Baltimore designated Luciano for assignment a week earlier. The Yankees had a technically open spot on their 40-man roster for the claim, while their agreement to re-sign Cody Bellinger remains unofficial. Luciano’s addition fills the Yankees’ 40-man roster, creating the need for a corresponding roster move if Bellinger is finalized. The roster status makes a subsequent transaction necessary to accommodate both Luciano and any eventual re-signing of Bellinger. Further roster updates are likely as the Yankees balance 40-man constraints with Bellinger’s pending status.
