The Yankees optioned Gomez to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Friday.
Analysis: Gomez made his major-league debut Thursday in Toronto and struck out four of the eight batters he faced over two scoreless innings of relief. The 23-year-old right-hander should be a consideration for the Opening Day roster next spring, whether in a rotation or bullpen role. He's mostly worked as a starter in the minors.
Yoendrys Gomez Called up for debut
Gomez was recalled from Double-A Somerset on Friday, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.
Analysis: Gomez held a 3.58 ERA and 78:37 K:BB across 65.1 innings of work covering 19 starts with Somerset this season to earn a look with the big club. The 23-year-old right-hander will be making his major-league debut when he gets into a game. Luke Weaver is slated to start Friday's game versus the Diamondbacks, so Gomez could be needed to eat some relief innings.
