The Yankees optioned Escarra to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Thursday.
With Escarra headed back to the minors, it means Ali Sanchez will likely be activated from the paternity list ahead of Friday's game against Boston. Escarra didn't see action in any of the three games after he was recalled Tuesday.

The Yankees recalled Escarra from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday.
Escarra was just sent down this past weekend, but he's back with the big club to take the roster spot vacated by Ali Sanchez (paternity). The 31-year-old will serve as the backup catcher behind Austin Wells while Sanchez is away for the next couple days.

The Yankees optioned Escarra to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Saturday.
The Yankees sent Escarra down to the minors earlier this month but were forced to bring him back a day later once Austin Wells (head) landed on the IL. Now that Wells is set to return to the active roster Sunday, Escarra will move back to Triple-A after posting a .493 OPS in 91 plate appearances with the Pinstripes. Ali Sanchez will remain as the backup catcher in the Bronx.

Escarra is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the White Sox.
The Yankees will go with a right-handed-heavy lineup to counter White Sox southpaw Anthony Kay, so Escarra will retreat to the bench along with fellow left-handed hitters Spencer Jones and Ryan McMahon. Ali Sanchez will get the nod at catcher, forming a battery with starting pitcher Carlos Rodon.

Escarra is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Guardians.
Left-hander Parker Messick is on the bump for Cleveland, so the left-handed-hitting Escarra will give way to the right-handed-hitting Ali Sanchez behind the dish in the series finale. Escarra was included in the lineup against righties in the first two games of the series and appears poised to occupy the strong side of a platoon at catcher while top backstop Austin Wells (headaches) is on the shelf.

The Yankees recalled Escarra from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Saturday.
Escarra was sent down to Triple-A on Friday after putting up just a .493 OPS through 68 plate appearances, but he'll turn around and return to the Bronx now that Austin Wells (head) is on the injured list. Escarra will likely work in a timeshare alongside Ali Sanchez behind the plate until Wells returns.
