Matt Carpenter was inserted to the New York Yankees' lineup as the designated hitter after agreeing to a one-year contract on Thursday, a week after he was released from the Texas Rangers' minor league system.

Carpenter entered the lineup for a series opener at Tampa Bay when center fielder Aaron Hicks was scratched shortly before game time with hamstring tightness. Aaron Judge was moved from DH to center.

The Los Angeles Dodgers agreed to a one-year contract extension with right-handed reliever Blake Treinen, the team announced Sunday.

Treinen, 33, is 1-1 with a 3.00 ERA in three innings pitched this season.
