Yankees to sign Chris Parmelee

The Yankees have finally signed their first free agent. According to his own Instagram account, first basemen Chris Parmelee has reached an agreement with the Yankees. There has been no announcement by the Yankees yet.

Parmelee was a member of the Baltimore Orioles last season where he hit .216 over 102 plate appearances. With the injury to Greg Bird over the offseason, Parmelee will fill a spot on the depth chart and potentially be used as a backup to Mark Teixeira.
