Since undergoing Tommy John surgery in 2023, the former Yankees and Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher has bounced between organizati

He briefly joined the Pittsburgh Pirates organization after that, but without a clear path to a major league return, he requested a release and will be looking to bounce back
