I’m not going to say that the cavalry has arrived, but Brian Cashman has done something to reinforce a battered Yankees’ 25-man roster. The historical amount of injuries the team has already shouldered got a little worse this morning with Clint Frazier hitting the shelf. In response, the Yankees acquired veteran outfielder Cameron Maybin, per Jack Curry. While the return is unknown, Curry indicates Maybin commanded a “modest price tag.”
Maybin, 32, has spent most of the spring with the Cleveland Triple-A affiliate, and has been a part of six organizations over the last two years, spending time with the Astros, Angels, Marlins, Mariners, Giants and Cleveland before being dealt to the Yankees.
