Nova and the Yanks avoided arbitration and agreed to a non-guaranteed contract of $3.3M. He is expected back from TJ surgery by June.

Re: New York Yankees 2015 Banter
 

Johan Santana is trying to make a comeback. He has missed the last couple years due to injury. Rumors are that the Yankees are interested. I could see it being a good pick up on a minor league deal with invite to spring training. Low cost safety net in Triple-A with Major League experience is always good. He might not be the starter he once was but if he can still throw at 36 he could factor into the bullpen as the long man or spot starter. Good chance Sabathia will be on the DL by the end of April. :r

I'd like to see Santana back on the Mets. I think he'd be a good mentor for the younger guys.

Liven it up you say?

According to a San Francisco Chronicle report, the active Major League leader in home runs is training with the all-time Major League leader in home runs. That's right, Barry and Aroid working out together, I suppose the phase "I'll do you if you do me!" is given an entirely new meaning!

Former Yankee Dave Bergman died Monday, he was 61.
The Yankees drafted him in the 2nd round of the 1974 draft. He had limited playing time with the Yankees in 1975 & 1977. He was traded to the Houston Astros in 1977 along with Mike Fischlin and Randy Niemann for Cliff Johnson. Along with playing for the Yankees & Astros he also played for the Giants and Tigers.
