Veteran outfielder Jay Bruce agreed to a minor-league deal with the New York Yankees, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.
The deal calls for Bruce to earn $1.35 million if he makes the team plus an extra $50,000 for 400, 450 and 500 plate appearances, according to Rosenthal.
Bruce spent his first nine seasons with the Reds, debuting as a 21-year-old in 2008. He slugged 233 home runs in Cincinnati, made three All-Star teams and earned two Silver Slugger awards before he was traded to the Mets in mid-2016.
