Yankees Bring Back Matt Daley On Minor League Deal


I know more than one of our readers who comment on the site that will be made happy for Christmas knowing that Matt Daley is back with the New York Yankees on a minor league deal. The deal will likely come with an invitation to Spring Training, although that was not confirmed either way in the press release, after being non tendered just a month ago.

Daley is a Queens native, which always makes having him on the team fun for fans, and was the guy who replaced Mariano Rivera on his final outing of his career that September night in Yankee Stadium. Daley allowed two hits and zero walks with eight strike outs in six innings this season in the majors. Daley pitched to a 2.02 ERA in the minors in 2013 across three levels after coming back from shoulder surgery.

    1. Has a legit shot to make the bullpen as it stands right now.

  2. Grant Balfour....this guy will bring an edge, an attitude and, a personality to any bullpen.

    Yankees get a second chance here. Robinson recently said he would pitch the eight, if asked.
    Go back, and reopen conversation with Balfour. Get your doctors to check him out....and if he is
    OK....pull the trigger.
    The bullpen reworking will be done....for the 2014 campaign

  4. Alex Rodriquez....As time move along, this is idiotic. All the other users have been given passes, or
    reasonable suspensions. Why hammer him.....or, run him out to the gallows ?
    NO OTHER option is better than a healthy Alex. None.

    Be fair to him, and lets turn the page, and move on. This is like swimming through sea weed.
    Alex, Beltran, Tex, Soriano, McC....or, Nunez followed by Beltran, and the others ?
