Yankees agree to terms with Andrew Bailey

According to Buster Olney, The Yankees have agreed to terms with free agent reliever Andrew Bailey. The deal is reported to be a minor league deal that is stacked with incentives if he makes the major league roster. If he makes the big league club, he will earn $2.5 million in 2014, with a option for 2015 and a buyout.

Bailey was a solid reliever for the Athletics from 2009-2011, before getting traded to the Boston Red Sox after the 2011 season. He had a rough time in Boston after a sub-par 2012 and an injury filled 2013 season.

With this signing, the Yankees hope Bailey can bolster their bullpen towards the end of the game.

Bailey won't be able to pitch until at least May as he is recovering from surgery he had in July to repair a torn labrum in his shoulder.
