PORT ST. LUCIE — The Yankees are including an AL East veteran to their bullpen.
The membership is signing lefty Ryan Yarbrough to a serious league deal, The Put up confirmed on Monday, to take one of many remaining spots of their bullpen on the Opening Day roster.
Yarbrough, 33, had been in camp with the Blue Jays however opted out of his minor league deal.
The longtime Ray break up final 12 months between the Dodgers and Blue Jays, posting a 3.19 ERA throughout 98 ⅔ innings and 44 video games.
Although he’s not a strikeout pitcher, Yarbrough ought to provide some size in reduction and function a second lefty with Tim Hill.
Yarbrough will doubtless push lefty Brent Headrick or righty Yerry De Los Santos to the minors to begin the season.
Yoendrys Gomez can also be competing for one of many final spots, however he’s out of minor league choices, making it doubtless he’s on the roster.
