left handed Ryan Yarbrough Sportsnet’s Shi Davidi reported that his upcoming opt-out will be triggered in a minor league deal with the Blue Jays. The team must decide whether to add him to the roster before 1pm on Sunday. If they don’t give him a place, he will be a free agent.
Yarbrough is the XX(B) free agent, and it is any player who has served for at least six years and they completed the last season on the major league roster or injured roster. Such players are guaranteed to sign the opt-out date for minor league deals at least ten days before opening day. The first of these opt-out dates is the five days of the open day, which will be tomorrow. The others are May 1 and June 1. When a player triggers the exit, the club has 48 hours to decide how to respond.
And more.
