The New York Yankees are adding a former Cy Young Award winner to their rotation.
Pitcher Corey Kluber and the Yankees are finalizing a deal, ESPN’s Jeff Passan reported on Friday.
Kluber pitched in only one game during the shortened season last year due to a shoulder injury. He pitched only 35.2 innings the season before that.
Before his recent injuries, Kluber had pitched five straight seasons of more than 200 innings for Cleveland. The 34-year-old won Cy Young Awards in 2014 and 2017 and is a three-time All-Star.
Kluber had a pitching showcase on Wednesday, which resulted in interest from numerous teams.
