The Yankees have signed 37-year old right-hander Nelson Figueroa to a minor league deal, tweets Jon Heyman.
Nelson was released by the Houston Astros in August of last year after he posted an 8.69 ERA with 5.3 K/9 and 5.0 B/9 in 29 innings.
Looks like the Yankees brought him in for pitching depth with the injury to Manny Banuelos.
The Yankees top prospect Manny Banuelos was placed on the disabled list due to a back injury.
Yankees 11, Angels 10. Seven home runs, a pinch-hit Grisham bomb, Judge passing Mantle, and a ninth-inning walk-off that ended on a bounced slider nobody saw coming.
The Yankees swept the Giants at Oracle Park, outscoring San Francisco 13-1. Fried set the tone, Schlittler looked healthy, Bednar locked down the ninth, and Judge homered in consecutive games after an 0-for-7 start.
The 2026 Yankees didn't build a roster for Opening Day. They built a roster for the second half -- four-man rotation, Volpe on the IL, Dominguez in Scranton, and a bullpen holding everything together until Cole and Rodón get back.
