DAMASO MARTE RUMORS & GOSSIP

Yankees Plan to Reject Damaso Marte’s $4 Mil Option

Except for a few glorious weeks in October of 2009, Damaso Marte‘s lastest stint with the Yankees has been an injury plagued disaster. They traded one of their top prospects at the time in Jose Tabata for him in 2008 and then signed him to a three-year $12 million deal before the 2009 season. He proceeded to miss most of the 2009 and 2010 seasons before missing all of the...

He was in the Yankees camp yesterday though and said he said he should start throwing soon and expects to be back by July. “I think I can pitch this season because I feel very good,” Marte said. It’s a nice thing to hear...

Yankees Damaso Marte Has Surgery, Out Until Mid-2011

Via Chad Jennings of the Journal News: [Damaso Marte] had labrum surgery on Friday and won’t throw until after the all-star break. Oddly enough, he took that as good news. Marte was worried that surgery would mean the end of his career. This is good news for Marte, but not necessarily for the Yankees. The Yankees gave up a lot to get Marte and outside of a great performance...

Will the Yankees stick with Marte and Logan?

Currently, the Yankee bullpen boasts a 4.15 FIP and a 4.35 xFIP. When compared across the two leagues, both numbers are fairly average, however, it should be noted that each figure is somewhat illusory. In reality, Joba Chamberlain – 2.25 FIP and 3.15 xFIP – and Mariano Rivera – 2.79 FIP and 3.46 FIP – have helped to bring the Yankees’ collective FIP and...

King: Marte Expected Back Tonight

George A. King III is reporting that Damaso Marte is expected to rejoin the Yankees tonight for their series in Boston. He also said that the Yanks could go with 13 pitchers. I don't mind the idea of carrying 13 pitchers, but why the hell would Marte be one of them? According to everything I read he never regained the velocity on his fastball, and he's been nothing but ineffective...

They also said that he could begin a rehab assignment as soon as later this week.I'm not really a big Marte fan, nor do I think he's going to make that much of a difference, but adding another lefty to the pen is a good thing.If the Yankees feel the same way as I do about Marte...
