Despite some recent struggles, Pittsburgh Pirates reliever David Bednar would fit in like a glove in the Yankees’ bullpen. Not only has he had an incredible season, but the right-hander was very good last year, too. He is on the right side of 30 at age-27, controllable, and efficient.
At the moment, the Yankees’ bullpen has two dominant relievers in Clay Holmes and Michael King, and a bunch of modest-to-good arms in Wandy Peralta, Lucas Luetge, Albert Abreu, and Miguel Castro. Jonathan Loáisiga has been activated from the injured list and could potentially from an elite late-inning triumvirate with Holmes and King.
