The Yankees have claimed right-handed reliever Michael Tonkin off waivers from the Mets, ensuring that he will continue to play in New York. Tonkin’s journey this season has been tumultuous, starting with his time on the Mets before being designated for assignment and traded to the Minnesota Twins. However, after just one appearance with the Twins, he was once again DFA’d and ended up back with the Mets. Unfortunately, Tonkin only made two appearances with the Mets before being DFA’d for the third time this season.
The 34-year-old reliever has struggled this season, posting a 6.00 ERA and 1.55 WHIP in 9.0 innings over six appearances for both the Mets and Twins. Despite his struggles, the Yankees have decided to take a chance on Tonkin and have added him to their 40-man roster. In order to make room for Tonkin, the Yankees have designated right-handed pitcher McKinley Moore for assignment. Tonkin will now have the opportunity to contribute to the Yankees bullpen and prove his worth at the major league level once again.
