The Yankees have inked the steady left fielder to a 1-year, $12.5 million deal. There is a $10 million option for 2021 as well, with a $2.5 million buyout, meaning Gardner is guaranteed $12.5 million but can make up to $20 million.
Last year, Gardner had one of the most productive years of his career, slashing .251/.325/.503, good for a 115 wRC+ while bringing his usual above average defense.
