Athletics To Sign Michael Ynoa

By Jeff Todd | February 12, 2020 at 10:20am CDT

The Athletics have agreed to a deal with righty Michael Ynoa, according to the Roster Roundup Twitter page. It’ll be a minor-league deal for the 28-year-old.

This represents a reunion of sorts for Ynoa, who started his pro career in the Oakland org and ended up being shipped to the White Sox in the Jeff Samardzija swap. Ynoa missed all of 2018 due to injury and was dropped early in 2019 by the Royals after 17 Triple-A appearances.

Ynoa has long struggled to rein in the walks — an issue that arose again last year. Through 59 MLB innings, he carries a 4.42 ERA with 8.1 K/9 and 5.9 BB/9. He has thrown 16 2/3 intriguing innings in Dominican winter all action of late, racking up 28 strikeouts while allowing five earned runs on just four hits … along with a dozen free passes.

      It’s not. I’ve been hearing about him since I was a little kid and I’m 70 now.

    This guy was supposed to be their next Felix Hernandez lol. Oh well, he does have a mid 90s plus fastball. Worth a flier for AAA depth

      At this point he’d be lucky to be the next Felix Heredia.

    I assume it’s just a 1 day signing so he can retire as an A.
