Yankees DFA Cade Winquest to Clear Space for Luis Gil Return

New York designated Rule 5 pick Cade Winquest for assignment to create a roster spot for the recall of Luis Gil, who is slated to start Friday against the Rays.

Winquest, 25, didn’t pitch in the majors over his two-week stint and had a rough spring.
