Yankees acquired Frankie Montas from the Oakland Athletics on August 1. Monta has a 6.35 ERA, 1 WHIP and 33 strikeouts in 39.2 innings over eight starts for the Yankees. He will have an MRI on his shoulder after feeling discomfort during Friday's start against the Milwaukee Brewers. If Montana is injured or misses time, Clarke Schmidt could move back into the rotation. Luis Severino hasn't pitched since July 13 because of a lat injury.
