Huascar Ynoa Signs With Mexican League's Leones De Yucatan

The Leones De Yucatán have signed pitcher Huascar Ynoa following his release from the Minnesota Twins, where he had a poor performance at Triple-A. At 27, Ynoa's earlier promising statistics with Atlanta have faded due to injuries and poor form, including Tommy John surgery. His recent struggles—marked by high ERA and low strikeout counts—led to decreased interest from MLB teams. The Leones aim to provide him ample time to regain his previous peak form and potentially attract MLB attention again.

Ynoa, who's turning 27, had a disappointing tenure with the Twins but previously showed promising numbers with Atlanta, suggesting potential for a comeback.

After undergoing Tommy John surgery in 2022 and missing most of 2023, Ynoa's performance showed signs of rust; the Leones hope to help him regain his form.
