Danish opted out of his deal with the Nationals and is now a free agent, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports.
Danish made 32 appearances for the Red Sox last season but has yet to take the ball at the major-league level this season. He's been OK at Triple-A Rochester this year from a run-prevention standpoint (3.72 ERA), but his 1.52 WHIP and 6.2 K/9 tell a different story, showing instead a pitcher walking a fine line.

Yankees' Tyler Danish: Sent to minors camp
Rotowire
The Yankees reassigned Danish to minor-league camp Sunday.
The minor-league deal Danish inked with the Yankees over the winter includes an opt-out clause, but it's unclear if the right-hander immediately plans to hit the open market or if he'll stick around with the organization with the hope of eventually climbing to the big-league roster. Danish struggled mightily with the Yankees during Grapefruit League play but was more reliable, if unspectacular, in a multi-inning role for Boston in 2022, logging a 5.13 ERA and 1.29 WHIP across 40.1 frames.

Yankees' Tyler Danish: Can opt out of deal Saturday
Rotowire
Danish has the ability to exercise an opt-out in his minor-league contract with the Yankees on Saturday, Brendan Kuty of The Athletic reports.
Considering Danish has posted a 33.23 ERA in six appearances this spring, he doesn't seem likely to trigger that opt-out. In all likelihood, he'll head to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre where he'll represent relief depth.

Yankees' Tyler Danish: Inks MiLB deal
Rotowire
Danish signed a minor-league contract with the Yankees on Thursday that includes an invite to major-league spring training, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.
Danish spent the 2022 campaign in Boston and was released in October after he posted a 5.13 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 32:12 K:BB across 40.1 innings. The Yankees will be looking for a bounce-back season from the 28-year-old in 2023.

Tyler Danish: Reaches free agency
Rotowire
Danish elected free agency Monday.
Danish chose to test his luck on the open market after he cleared waivers when Boston outrighted him off the 40-man roster last week. The right-handed reliever turned in a 5.13 ERA and 1.29 WHIP while collecting three holds in 40.1 innings with the Red Sox in 2022.

Rotowire
Danish was recalled from Triple-A Worcester on Friday, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

Red Sox's Tyler Danish: Activated and optioned
Rotowire
The Red Sox reinstated Danish (forearm) from the 15-day injured list Sunday and optioned him to Triple-A Worcester.
Danish looks to have overcome the right forearm strain that landed him on the shelf after he recently made four rehab appearances for Worcester. After making the first three of his appearances between Aug. 10 and 14, Danish didn't pitch again until Saturday due to testing positive for COVID-19 on Aug. 18. The right-hander could be a candidate to rejoin the Red Sox when the active roster expands to 28 men in September.

Red Sox's Tyler Danish: Tests positive for COVID-19
Rotowire
Danish (forearm) tested positive for COVID-19 on Thursday, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.
Danish made three rehab appearances at Triple-A Worcester over the last week and posted a 2.45 ERA and 2.18 WHIP in 3.2 innings. However, he'll now need to spend some time away from the team, and it wouldn't be surprising to see him make a few more rehab starts to regain his conditioning once he clears the league's health and safety protocols.

Red Sox's Tyler Danish: Prepared for rehab assignment
Rotowire
Red Sox manager Alex Cora said that Danish (forearm) will begin a minor-league rehab assignment Wednesday, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.
Danish supplied a 4.02 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 25:8 K:BB to go with two wins and three holds in 31.1 innings out of the Boston bullpen before he was placed on the 15-day injured list July 7 with a right forearm strain. Since the Red Sox presumably envision Danish handling a multi-inning relief role once he comes off the IL, he'll likely need multiple appearances in the minors to get fully ramped up.

Red Sox's Tyler Danish: Not yet throwing
Rotowire
Danish (forearm) is working on strengthening exercises and hasn't yet resumed throwing, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.
Danish is dealing with a flexor strain in his right arm that has kept him on the injured list since July 7. The right-hander isn't eligible to return from the IL until at least July 22, but it seems as though he'll require more time on the shelf, since he'll need some time to ramp up his workload once he's ultimately cleared to resume a throwing program.

Red Sox's Tyler Danish: Placed on injured list
Rotowire
Danish was placed on the 15-day injured list with a right forearm strain Thursday, Bill Koch of The Providence Journal reports.
Danish made multi-inning relief appearances Tuesday and Wednesday, and he allowed a run on four hits and two walks while striking out three in four innings. However, he's apparently dealing with a forearm issue that will keep him sidelined through the All-Star break. The severity of the injury isn't yet clear, and a timetable for the right-hander's return hasn't been revealed.
The Red Sox recalled Danish from Triple-A Worcester on Sunday, Rob Bradford of WEEI.com reports.
He'll join the 26-man active roster as a replacement for Michael Wacha (intercostal), who was moved to 15-day injured list after being scratched from his scheduled start Sunday against the White Sox. Tanner Houck will move into the rotation and pick up the start Sunday, while Danish assumes Houck's spot in the bullpen. Expect Danish to work mostly in lower-leverage spots while he's up with the big club.

Red Sox's Tyler Danish: Optioned to Triple-A
Rotowire
Danish was optioned to Triple-A Worcester on Friday, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.
Danish was up with the big-league club for the four-game set in Toronto, and he allowed two runs on three hits with one strikeout and zero walks over 1.2 innings during the series. The 27-year-old will head back to Worcester for now but could rejoin the big club later in the year.

Red Sox's Tyler Danish: Joins big club in Toronto
Rotowire
The Red Sox recalled Danish from Triple-A Worcester on Monday.
Though Danish was technically optioned to Worcester on Sunday, he remained part of the Red Sox's taxi squad in anticipation of rejoining the active roster for the team's four-game series in Toronto this week. With Tanner Houck and Kutter Crawford both unable to cross the Canadian border due to their status as unvaccinated players and thus landing on the restricted list, Danish and John Schreiber will join the big club in Toronto to provide fresh arms out of the bullpen.

Red Sox's Tyler Danish: Removed from active roster
Rotowire
The Red Sox optioned Danish to Triple-A Worcester on Sunday.
Danish's demotion clears room on the 28-man active roster for Rich Hill (personal), who was reinstated from the bereavement list in advance of his scheduled start Sunday in Tampa Bay. The 27-year-old right-hander made two appearances out of the bullpen following his call-up from Worcester on Tuesday, tossing three scoreless, no-hit innings while striking out five.

Red Sox's Tyler Danish: Joins big club
Rotowire
The Red Sox recalled Danish from Triple-A Worcester on Tuesday.
He was added to the active roster as a replacement for catcher Christian Vazquez (illness), who was placed on the COVID-19-related injured list. After falling short in his bid for a spot in the Red Sox's Opening Day bullpen, Danish earned his way on the active roster after striking out six over three scoreless frames through his first three appearances of the season with Worcester.

Red Sox's Tyler Danish: Optioned to Triple-A
Rotowire
Danish was optioned to Triple-A Worcester on Thursday, Rob Bradford of WEEI.com reports.
Danish's contract was selected Monday, but he won't open the season in the big leagues. As a member of the 40-man roster, he could be one of the first players called up when the Red Sox need another reliever, but his 11:13 K:BB in 13 career MLB innings (the last of which came in 2018) doesn't make him look like a particularly strong bullpen option.
