The Chicago White Sox have shown interest in free-agent relief pitcher Adam Ottavino, according to sources. Despite being in the middle of a rebuild, the Pale Hose have money to spend and are interested in taking a big step forward in 2019. Ottavino was the Rockies best reliever in 2018, recording six saves, a 2.43 ERA, 0.99 WHIP and 112 strikeouts in 77 2/3 innings. Nate Jones is a candidate to open next year as Chicago's closer, but Ottavino certainly has the stuff to leapfrog him in the ninth inning.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

New York Yankees relief pitcher Adam Ottavino was designated for assignment on Tuesday. This is the second time in the last week he has been designated for assignment by the Yankees. He cleared waivers, opted for free agency, and then re-signed after his previous DFA, so it's possible he could end up back with the Yankees again. So far this season, the 39-year-old righty has pitched in three games and tossed 1 2/3 innings of hitless and scoreless relief even though he has issued four walks. He still has shown good strikeout stuff with three punchouts in nine batters, but he's a peripheral part of the bullpen as evidenced by his multiple DFAs in such a short time.--Zach Thompson - RotoBaller

The New York Yankees and relief pitcher Adam Ottavino agreed to a one-year contract on Tuesday. The veteran was with Boston this spring but wasn't able to make the roster so he opted out of his minor league deal, allowing him to sign with another team. That other team will be the same one he was with from 2019-20. The righty pitched last season for the Mets and owns a career ERA of 3.49, a 1.28 WHIP, and 16.9 percent K-BB%. The 39-year-old will likely provide the Yankees with some middle relief help, and with some solid strikeout stuff left in the repertoire, he could feasibly be of help to managers in deep AL-only leagues, but that's about the extent of his fantasy relevance.--Jarod Rupp - RotoBaller

The Boston Red Sox granted right-handed reliever Adam Ottavino his release on Sunday after he triggered his opt-out clause, a source tells MassLive's Chris Cotillo. Ottavino triggered the opt-out clause in his minor-league contract after he was informed that he wasn't going to make the Opening Day bullpen out of camp. The 39-year-old veteran struggled to a 10.80 ERA with five walks and eight strikeouts in five Grapefruit League innings in spring training, but he's likely to get picked up before long due to his 46 career saves over 14 years of big-league experience. In 60 appearances out of the bullpen for the New York Mets in 2024, Ottavino held a 4.34 ERA (3.67 FIP), a 1.29 WHIP, one save, 70 strikeouts, 23 walks and 15 holds as a late-inning setup man. Ottavino has a 3.49 career ERA and 1.28 WHIP over his 14 seasons with five different teams.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

Right-handed relief pitcher Adam Ottavino signed a minor-league contract with the Boston Red Sox. This deal also includes an invitation to spring training. Ottavino spent the 2021 campaign in Boston but has spent the past three seasons in Queens. Last summer, Ottavino held a 4.34 ERA and a 1.29 WHIP across 56 innings with the Mets. He generated a strong 3.19 xERA, which suggests he should see some regression when he returns to the mound. However, during the 2022 and 2023 seasons, the right-hander was very effective as he held a 2.62 ERA and a strong 1.09 WHIP across 127 1/3 innings. During this stretch, he tallied 141 punchouts and added 32 holds. Fantasy managers should expect the 39-year-old to compete for a bullpen role in Boston. If he cracks the Opening Day roster, he could eventually earn a high-leverage role.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller
