The New York Yankees have designated Jeter Downs for assignment, one month after the club claimed him off waivers from the Washington Nationals.

The Yankees needed the roster spot after claiming Diego Castillo off waivers from the New York Mets.

Downs, the 32nd overall pick by the Cincinnati Reds in the 2017 amateur draft, is named after Derek Jeter.

The Yankees have seven days to trade Downs or place him on waivers.
