Poteet signed a one-year, $750,000 contract with the Yankees on Thursday, Ari Alexander of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: Poteet had Tommy John surgery in August of 2022, making it back last year for one late-season appearance with Triple-A Omaha in the Royals organization. The 29-year-old holds a career 4.45 ERA and 53:27 K:BB across 58.2 frames at the major-league level. Poteet has options remaining and seems likely to begin the 2024 season at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.
Cody Poteet Released by Royals
Poteet was released by the Royals on Saturday.
Analysis: Poteet signed a minor-league deal last winter after having Tommy John surgery and made it back for one late-season appearance with Triple-A Omaha. The Royals have decided not to keep him through the offseason, so the 29-year-old righty will look for a new organization.
