Originally an amateur signing for the Yankees out of Venezuela in 2015, Yajure made his MLB debut in 2020 by pitching seven innings over three games. That offseason, New York included Yajure as part of the four-player package sent to the Pirates in the trade that brought Jameson Taillon to the Bronx.
Yajure hasn't been back to the majors since, as he spent all of 2023 pitching in the Giants' minor league system after San Francisco claimed him off waivers from the Pirates last winter. Over 75 1/3 total innings (60 1/3 with Triple-A Sacramento), Yajure struggled to a 6.07 ERA and a 10.79% walk rate, with a decent but unspectacular 22.73% strikeout rate.
