Yankees OF Bryan De La Cruz elected free agency.

De La Cruz wound up spending the rest of the season toiling away at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre after being claimed off waivers from Atlanta in early May. The 28-year-old outfielder hit .191/.240/.213 during a 16-game stint with Atlanta, but hit an encouraging .263/.331/.431 with 15 homers and eight steals in 102 games this season at the Triple-A level.
