I believe I predicted this a week or so ago but it is finally a reality now that the New York Yankees have signed Mark Reynolds to a major league deal today. The Yankees are only on the hook for a pro-rated portion of the league minimum for the rest of the season which is somewhere below $200,000. The Yankees have been searching for a right handed power bat to compliment Lyle Overbay and, strike outs and terrible defense and all, they found it with Reynolds. Reynolds has put up a .207/.315/.373 triple slash with the Indians this year including 16 home runs. Welcome to the team Mark!
Didn't see this one coming, but I'm happy it happened.
