The Yankees have acquired or given out some bad contracts over the past few years but for the most part, the additions they’ve made have been extremely solid. Let’s take a look...
Masahiro Tanaka: 7 years/$155M (entering year 7)
Zack Britton: 3 years, $39M (entering year 2)
Adam Ottavino: 3 years, $27M (entering year 2)
DJ LeMahieu: 2 years, $24M (entering year 2)
Aroldis Chapman: 3 years, $48M ( entering year 1)
Brett Gardner: 1 year, $12.5M (entering year 1)
Gerrit Cole: 9 years, $324M (entering year 1)
On the pitching side, Masahiro Tanaka’s mega-deal has been worth every penny since he signed with New York back on January 22, 2014.
