As the clock ticks down on Yankees camp, the Opening Day roster is beginning to take shape. Carlos Carrasco will be on it. Clarke Schmidt and Ian Hamilton will not. Giancarlo Stanton still

With Stanton out indefinitely and DJ LeMahieu (calf strain) in need of more time and unreliable once healthy, Cashman said the Yankees are “keeping the phone lines open” with regards to external additions. However, he also said “there’s not a lot of heavy-lifting going on in that area” and “this time of year, it’s not easy” to upgrade.

According to Yankees' GM Brian Cashman, veteran right-hander Carlos Carrasco will be added to the 40-man roster and pitchers Ian Hamilton and Clarke Schmidt are likely to begin the season on the IL.
