Schlittler, 25, is 9-5 with an American League-best 2.05 ERA in 20 appearances (all starts) this season. His 137 strikeouts trail only Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Dylan Cease for most in the AL.
He has thrown 118 2/3 innings this season, which puts him on pace to outstrip the career-high 149 2/3 innings he logged last year between the Yankees, Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre and Double-A Somerset.
