The Yankees signed reliever Rafael Montero to a minor league deal with incentives, hoping his improved control and pitch mix will bolster their bullpen.
The New York Yankees have signed 35-year-old reliever Rafael Montero to a minor league contract with a $1.8 million base salary and a $500,000 roster bonus if he makes the major league roster.
Montero, who posted a 4.48 ERA in 60 1/3 innings across three teams in 2025, showed improvement late with the Tigers, posting a 2.86 ERA in his final 22 innings.
The Yankees hope his fastball and splitter, combined with a new focus on reducing walks, can help stabilize their bullpen.
He has three opt-out dates during the season and is expected to compete for a spot in spring training.
