Earlier this spring, the Yankees waived Chad Gaudin after he lost the battle for the last spot in the rotation. Now, two months later, he’s going back to New York:
Yankees Bring Chad Gaudin Back To Pitch Out Of Bullpen
The Yankees agreed to terms to re-sign Gaudin on Wednesday, according to a source, adding him to their bullpen as a long reliever. Gaudin’s arrival may mean that the Yankees received bad news on Alfredo Aceves, who suffered a setback with his injured back on Tuesday and could be headed for surgery to repair a herniated disk.
According to the source, Gaudin is in Minneapolis, where he’s expected to be activated for Wednesday night’s game.
No corresponding roster move has been announced. Gaudin will expected to fill in a number of fifth and sixth innings.
