Yankees Select Contract Of David Hale

By Jeff Todd | May 21, 2019 at 1:15pm CDT

The Yankees announced today that they have selected the contract of righty David Hale. To create roster space, the club optioned Nestor Cortes Jr. and shifted Miguel Andujar to the 60-day injured list.

Hale appeared briefly in the majors last year, including a few outings with the Yankees, who actually designated the right-hander for assignment on three different occasions in 2018. However, he split most of the season between Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre and Korea’s Hanwha Eagles.

To open the 2019 season, Hale moved back to the Triple-A rotation in the New York organization. He has made six starts this year, working to a 4.11 ERA with 8.5 K/9 and 2.1 BB/9 over 30 2/3 innings. The 2009 third-rounder has a career 4.49 ERA in 192 1/3 Major League innings and a 4.57 ERA in 403 2/3 frames at the Triple-A level.

    If he can average more than 5 IP per start he should be able to.

    Quick correction Jeff: Hale made three appearances as a Yankee last season. 1 prior to his Twins tenure and 2 thereafter.

    With the way the Yanks season has gone, Hale will be in the discussion for the Cy Young award by the end of the year…..

      With The way the Yanks luck has been this year, he’ll probably pitch a no hitter or 2.

      Wouldn’t that be great? He does have an Ivy League education to fall back on but he keeps attempting to stick in the majors. He has a very good sinker that might improve if he could learn the shuutu from Tanaka. He might have a chance of sticking if he stops throwing his changeup so much (which is what batters tee off on) and figured out how to get some movement on his 4-seam. Rich Hill was able to finally put it together so maybe Hale can. He definitely has worked hard enough and chased his dream long enough to have the baseball gods smile on him for half a season. I wish him luck!!
