Yankees sign Tim Redding

Yes, it’s true. MLBTR says so. The Yankees signed 32-year-old righty Tim Redding to a minor league deal after the Rockies released him earlier today. He of course made one very disastrous start for the Yanks back in 2005, and since then he’s put up a 4.98 FIP in 386 innings for Nationals and Mets. It’s just a depth move since the Triple-A Scranton staff is in a little bit of flux, so as long as he doesn’t see a day with the big league team, it’s cool.
