BRONX, N.Y. — The New York Yankees have reportedly inked catcher Robinson Chirinos to a minor-league contract. Last season, Chirinos, 36, split time between the Texas Rangers and New York Mets. The veteran backstop sported a 36 OPS+ in 26 games. Not great.

Before an unceremonious 2020, Chirinos did pop double-digit home runs in five of his nine big league campaigns.
