"According to CBS Sports' Jon Heyman, the Yankees have claimed David Robertson off revocable waivers.
Now the Yankees and White Sox have until Monday at 2 p.m. ET to work something out. Heyman says there is "no evidence of trade talks between the teams," though New York would undoubtedly love a reunion with the 30-year-old reliever. Robertson has registered a 2.60 ERA, 0.88 WHIP, and 71/11 K/BB ratio in 52 innings this season for Chicago. He signed a four-year, $46 million free agent contract last winter."
