Charleston RiverDogs News Release
LAKEWOOD, NJ - The New York Yankees have announced the following roster moves affecting the Charleston RiverDogs roster:
- Â RHP Daniel Ramos - Placed on Charleston 7-Day Disabled List (Retroactive to 5/8)
- Â RHP Austin DeCarr - Transferred from Extended Spring Training to Charleston
DeCarr, 23, returns for his second stint with the RiverDogs after making 13 appearances (five starts) in a Charleston uniform in 2017. The former 3rd round prep pick out of Foxborough, Mass. went 2-1 with a 5.87 ERA with 32 strikeouts and 29 walks in 30 2/3 innings in the SALLY League before finishing the year with Short Season Staten Island.
DeCarr gets set to make his debut in what will be his fourth year as a pro. The right-hander was shutdown in Spring Training in 2015 before undergoing Tommy John surgery. He made 10 starts with Staten Island in 2016.
Charleston (16-16) continues their Northern tour on Thursday night in Lakewood, taking on the BlueClaws (17-15), the Class A affiliate of the Philadelphia Phillies, in game two of a three-game tilt at FirstEnergy Park starting at 6:35 p.m. The game broadcast begins at 6:30 on riverdogs.com and the RiverDogs TuneIn radio station. The club's radio affiliate will join the game in progress starting at 7 p.m on WTMA 1250 AM.
After the three-game series in Lakewood and four in Hagerstown, MD, the RiverDogs return to The Joe for a four-game set against the Columbia Fireflies, starting with a Budweiser Thirsty Thursday presented by 95SX on May 17.
