As the Philadelphia Phillies appear poised to reunite with Brad Miller, another slugger with connections to the organization has moved on.
Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic says that Jay Bruce has agreed to a minor-league deal with the New York Yankees, one that will include an invite to major league spring training. Rosenthal adds that if Bruce ultimately makes the major league roster, he’ll be paid $1.35 million, and he has incentives in his deal that will pay him an additional $50,000 if he reaches 400, 450 and 500 plate appearances in 2021.
