The New York Yankees have watched Clay Holmes sign with the New York Mets and they could look to add Kirby Yates as the team's new closer.
New York Yankees fans can now say goodbye to closer Clay Holmes. Holmes has reportedly agreed to terms on a contract with the New York Mets for three years, $38 million with an opt-out after the second year. The Mets plan to turn the All-Star reliever into a starter.Now, the Yankees can turn their attention to adding a new closer. Preferably for the Bronx Bombers, it won't be a closer that blows a baker's dozen games in 2025.FanSided's Jacob Mountz has an idea.
'This past season, Yates threw 61 2/3 innings to the tune of an incredible career-low 1.17 ERA with 85 strikeouts. It was the second time he finished a season with an ERA below 1.20. Should the Yankees sign him, he will likely provide them the depth they need to persist throughout the postseason. Yates is entering his age-38 season, so a contract for him will likely be short and relatively inexpensive.'Yates is somebody the Yankees will likely pursue.
