Alex Verdugo was removed from the Yankees' lineup for Sunday's spring training game against the Detroit Tigers due to a left leg contusion. The injury occurred after Verdugo was hit by a pitch. Originally, Verdugo was slated to bat sixth and play left field. In addition to this lineup change, the Yankees announced several roster moves prior to the game, including optioning right-handed pitchers Luis Gil and Yoendrys Gómez to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre and reassigning right-handed pitchers Chase Hampton and Art Warren to minor league camp.
