ESPN: New York Yankees newcomer Corey Kluber takes another step after 2 lost years

Disclaimer: If you think this is the official website of the New York Yankees, you're an idiot. Go away.

After losing to the eventual American League champion Tampa Bay Rays in a five-game division series last year, the Yankees allowed Masahiro Tanaka, James Paxton and J.A. Happ to become free agents. They signed Kluber to a one-year, $11 million contract and acquired Jameson Taillon from Pittsburgh for four prospects. “Looks like himself,” Yankees second baseman DJ LeMahieu said. “Ball’s moving all over the place.” New York’s projected rotation also includes ace Gerrit Cole and Jordan Montgomery.
