The Yankees are on the verge of losing highly regarded minor league pitching coordinator Danny Borrell to Georgia Tech.
According to a person with knowledge of the situation, Borrell and the school are closing in on a five-year deal for him to be the Yellow Jackets’ pitching coach. The deal is worth in the neighborhood of $1.5 million, which is a significant bump in salary from what the former minor league pitcher is making with the Yankees.
Borrell, 40, is in his fifth year as pitching coordinator and has helped develop Domingo German, Luis Gil and Deivi Garcia.
