As we wrap up our Report Card series, we enter the more obscure realms of players to appear for the Yankees in 2020. On the docket for today: a miscellany of low-leverage relievers. This trio of bullpen arms received minimal playing time, and therefore all merited incomplete grades. Regardless, let’s look at their performances in limited action.
David Hale
Grade: I
2020 Statistics (with Yankees): five games, 6.0 IP, 3.00 ERA, 2.36 FIP, 3.32 xFIP, 10.5 K/9, 4.5 BB/9, 0.1 fWAR
2021 Contract Status: Avoided arbitration, signed through 2021, $850,000 with Phillies
Hale was quietly one of the more effective multi-innings relievers for the Yankees over the last three seasons.
