Yankees reliever Ian Hamilton lands on rarely used COVID injured list

COVID-19 is still around and still forcing players to the sidelines. 

The Yankees moved righty Ian Hamilton to the seven-day COVID IL before beginning a series with the Mariners in The Bronx on Monday.

In corresponding moves, the Yankees selected the contract of lefty Clayton Andrews from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre and designated righty Colby White for assignment. 

Hamilton has not been as dominant as he was last season, but the valuable reliever still has posted a 3.18 ERA in 22 2/3 innings. 

Andrews, a 5-foot-6 southpaw who came over in a February trade with the Brewers, held a 6.60 ERA in 15 innings with SWB.
