The New York Yankees are adding left-hander Ryan Yarbrough to their bullpen, according to multiple reports Monday.
ESPN said it’s a one-year, $2 million deal, plus $500,000 in incentives.
Yarbrough had been at spring training with the Toronto Blue Jays on a minor league deal but opted out.
The 33-year-old Yarbrough was used exclusively as a reliever last season in 44 games split between the Los Angeles Dodgers and Blue Jays, finishing 5-2 with a career-best 3.19 ERA in 98 2/3 innings over 44 games. He had one save.
He began his career with the Tampa Bay Rays (2018-22) and also has pitched for the Kansas City Royals.
In 196 games (68 starts), Yarbrough is 53-40 with a 4.21 ERA.
