The Yankees signed right-hander Phil Bickford to a minor league deal worth $1.1MM if he makes New York's active roster.
Bickford might now be in line to make more than the $900K he was slated to receive if he'd just made the Mets' active roster.
Bickford posted a 2.50 ERA, 29.5% strikeout rate, and nine percent walk rate over 50 1/3 innings out of the Los Angeles bullpen.
The Yankees are forever on the lookout for bullpen arms, and the team's recent ability to get good results from multiple unheralded or off-the-radar relievers perhaps bodes well for Bickford's chances at success.
