Whereas Jasson Domínguez and Spencer Jones stay unclear of their roles for the Yankees after the return of Cody Bellinger in left area, the Yankees added some outfield depth on Friday by claiming Michael Siani off waivers from the Dodgers.
The 26-year-old Siani spent most of final 12 months with the Cardinals Triple-A Memphis affiliate and appeared in simply 19 video games with St. Louis.
However he performed 124 video games for the Cardinals in 2024, though he had only a .570 OPS.
A strong defender in middle area, Siani was chosen off waivers by Atlanta from St. Louis in November after which claimed by the Dodgers final month.
He was designated for project by Los Angeles after they signed Kyle Tucker.
Siani joins a bunch of recently-signed depth items by the Yankees, becoming a member of Seth Brown and Marco Luciano.
To open up a spot on the 40-man roster for Siani, the Yankees designated recently-signed right-handed reliever Kaleb Ort for project.
