I think you're right, I'm pretty sure he was under team control. Because everyone wants to play for the Yankees and that’s why guys sign here for well below market deals?

If the Dodgers are told that there is no way they are getting Hoffman back, would they essentially take Mitre for free? Maybe they would, maybe not, but he’s cheap and he’s shown an ability to pitch in the NL.

Starting? Probably, but he's making under a million dollars...so his production-to-cost value is actually pretty good compared to others out there. And when you put him in the bullpen where other guys like Brandon Lyon, John Grabow, Danys Baez, Ryota Igarashi, Takashi Saito, etc. making millions and millions of dollars...his production-to-cost ratio might be even a smidge better...
