New York Yankees sign flame-throwing pitcher in free agency

The New York Yankees have signed a bevy of undrafted pitchers, including Jarod Lessar, Trevor Holloway, Ocean Gabonia, Carson Coleman, and now flame-thrower Connor Pellerin.

At 6 foot four and 210 pounds, Pellerin is a big picture. He posted a 2.25 ERA over six games as a junior, following up a tumultuous sophomore campaign where he logged 88.4 4 ERA over 21 appearances. Allowing 25 runs and 31 walks over 26.2 innings, Pellerin certainly tries not to think about those tough times often. However, he improved significantly and just one season, which shows his ability to adapt and learn from his mistakes.
