Remember when the New York Yankees and their fans thought that the sky was falling above Yankee Stadium each and every night after Mariano Rivera tore his ACL in 2012? Many don't remember that anymore after Rafael Soriano came in and untucked his shirt 42 times after 42 saves essentially saving the Yankees season in 2012. Soriano is still out there on the free agent market and with the teams unwillingness to call up Jacob Lindgren, trust David Carpenter or keep Chris Martin healthy is it time to #untuck, again?
Soriano has not pitched a professional inning this season after falling out of grace and losing his closer role in Washington in the second half of 2014 and even though he is a Scott Boras client you would think that money would not be an issue at this point. Any deal Soriano signs would be a prorated deal and would likely come closer and closer to the league minimum with every day that Soriano is a free agent. Soriano comes in as a veteran with experience pitching in New York posting these stats in his career season of 2012:
