Yankees Closing In On Adam Ottavino
6 years agoThe New York Yankees are closing in on free-agent relief pitcher Adam Ottavino on Thursday, according to sources. If the agreement is completed, the deal is expected to be in the three-year, $25 million range. Ottavino had an excellent year in 2018 and was Colorado's best reliever, posting a 2.43 ERA, 0.99 WHIP, six saves and a career-high 13.0 K/9 in 77 2/3 innings. New York's bullpen was already one of the best in baseball, so they're about to get even better. Ottavino might be third or fourth in the pecking order for saves in the Bronx, though, limiting his fantasy value to deeper leagues for his excellent ratios.
