Yankees Sign Tim Mayza to Major League Deal

The New York Yankees have signed left-handed pitcher Tim Mayza to a major league contract and added him to their active roster, aiming to bolster their bullpen. Mayza, who previously spent eight seasons with the Toronto Blue Jays, had a difficult 2024 season with an 8.03 ERA in 35 games, leading to his release. However, he showed promise in Triple-A with a 2.16 ERA in nine outings for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. Despite his recent struggles, Mayza was a top reliever for Toronto in 2023, posting a 1.52 ERA. The Yankees are hoping Mayza can regain his form and provide stability to their bullpen as they enter a critical phase of the season.
