Kirby Yates Newsbeat
Tuesday, January 19, 2021
Free-agent reliever Kirby Yates has reached agreement on a deal with the Toronto Blue Jays, The Athletic reported.
The one-year deal has a $5.5 million guarantee, according to Sportsnet, and includes $4.5 million in performance bonuses for appearances and awards.
The deal is pending a physical, which Yates underwent Tuesday at the Blue Jays’ spring training facility in Dunedin, Florida, per The Athletic.
Yates, 33, pitched just 4⅓ innings last season for the San Diego Padres before undergoing season-ending surgery in August to remove bone chips from his right elbow. Before the surgery he struggled in his six appearances, going 0-1 with a 12.46 ERA and two saves.
