Player Notes

September 5, 2009
Josh Towers has been recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

Our View:Towers has a 4.96 ERA in 726 career innings, and will likely only be used in mop-up situations (or start's affected by the team's "Joba rules").

August 9, 2009
Josh Towers has been designated for assignment by the Yankees to make room for Chad Gaudin on the roster, according to the Associated Press.

Our View:The 32-year-old vet did not see any action in the majors this season, and was viewed as expendable.

August 8, 2009
According to Mark Feinsand on Twitter, the Yankees plan on designating Josh Towers for assignment on Sunday.

Our View:The Yanks need to clear room for Chad Gaudin, so Towers gets the boot. He was called up Saturday, didn't enter the game and now is being DFAed. He was treated as a one-day emergency backup plan. Rough 24 hours for the Triple-A starter.

August 8, 2009
According to the Twitter page of Yankees' beat writer Mark Feinsand, the team has recalled pitcher Josh Towers from Triple-A Scranton. In a corresponding move, the team optioned Mark Melancon back to the minors.

Our View:Towers has been moving around the minors since starting 15 games in 2007, and it looks like the Yanks have seen enough from him to give him a chance in the bullpen. The team needed more pitching after last night's 15 inning game, so Towers could see some innings tonight out of the bullpen.

March 2, 2008
Josh Towers pitched three scoreless frames Sunday against the A's, giving up two hits while striking out three. A candidate for the Rox rotation, Towers has given up one run in five spring innings.
