Adam Ottavino Elects Free Agency
New York Yankees right-handed reliever Adam Ottavino elected free agency on Thursday instead of accepting an outright minor-league assignment. Ottavino has now been designated for assignment twice by the Yankees and has refused an outright assignment to the minors both times after clearing waivers. There's a chance the 39-year-old veteran will return to the Yankees if he doesn't generate much interest on the open market. He's made three appearances out of the bullpen for the Yankees this year and has thrown 1 2/3 scoreless innings with four walks and three strikeouts. Last year with the New York Mets, Ottavino had a 4.34 ERA (3.67 FIP), a 1.29 WHIP, one save, 70 strikeouts and 23 walks in 56 relief innings.
