Yankees promote RHP Green from minors to start vs Blue Jays

NEW YORK (AP) The Yankees have promoted right-hander Chad Green from Triple-A to start Monday night against the AL East-leading Toronto Blue Jays.

This is Green's fifth stint with the Yankees this season. He is 1-2 with a 4.94 ERA in eight games, including four starts.

The 25-year-old Green made his major league debut in May.

The Yankees sent Luis Severino back to Scranton/Wilkes-Barre after he got hit hard by Tampa Bay in a start Sunday.
