Los Angeles Angels

Ty Buttrey threw a 20-pitch bullpen session Tuesday in Florida.

Fabian Ardaya on Twitter

Buttrey suffered an intercostal strain after arriving to Angels' camp back in mid-February, but it shouldn't be an issue assuming baseball is finally played this year. He's been training seven days a week in preparation for games while maintaining social distancing. If healthy, he should slide into a late-inning role for the Halos.

P. Sandoval - 3B

ATL

Braves re-signed INF Pablo Sandoval to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training.

Jon Heyman of MLB Network says that Sandoval will receive a $1 million salary if in the majors. The 34-year-old finished last season with the Braves after spending most of it with the Giants. He was useful in 2019, but if Sandoval winds up playing much in 2021 it's probably not a good sign for the Braves.

J. Taillon - SP

NYY

Jon Heyman of MLB Network reports that the Yankees have a deal in place to acquire Jameson Taillon from the Pirates.

The Pirates will be receiving pitching prospects Miguel Yajure and Roansy Contreras, outfield prospect Canaan Smith and shortstop prospect Maikol Escotto in return. Of the four, Yajure is ranked the highest by MLB.com as the Yanks' No. 15 prospect, so this is definitely a quantity over quality haul for the Pirates. As far as Taillon goes, he hasn't made a start since May of 2019 as he recovers from his second Tommy John surgery. However, while he certainly comes with some health risk, Taillon was, at minimum, a nice mid-rotation starter before getting hurt. He'll also make just $2.25 million in 2021 and is under team control through 2022. Pitching at Yankee Stadium and in the AL East is a tall task, but Taillon will have a dynamic offense backing him.

K. Hendricks - SP

CHI

Scott Mitchell of TSN reports that the Blue Jays have discussed a potential trade with the Cubs involving Kris Bryant and Kyle Hendricks.

Mitchell was responding to a question on Twitter asking whether there was any truth to the rumor that the Jays had talked with the Cubs about a deal for both players, and he answered in the affirmative. What we don't know is whether the discussions were just preliminary or if they've gone any deeper. Bryant is a shoo-in to be traded, whether it's before Opening Day or at the deadline. Hendricks, though, is on a pretty team-friendly contract and the Cubs' rotation depth is already paper-thin, so it's unclear how much of an appetite the club would have to trade him.

Y. Puig - RF

FA

Jon Heyman of MLB Network reports that there's "no evidence" the Yankees are interested in Yasiel Puig.

Puig has been connected to the Yanks a couple times this offseason, including on Saturday by Jim Bowden of The Athletic. However, the fit doesn't really make sense since the club is already loaded with right-handed hitting outfielders. The Bombers are looking for a left-handed hitting outfielder, and a reunion with Brett Gardner would seem to be the likeliest scenario.

D. Young - RF

FA

Delmon Young hurled a scoreless inning Saturday for the Melbourne Aces in the Australian Baseball League.

Yes, you’re reading this correctly. The 35-year-old former major-league outfielder has made the transition to pitching in Australia and finally made his first appearance on the mound. He issued a pair of walks, but managed to induce an inning-ending twin-killing to keep the Brisbane Bandits off the scoreboard in the ninth inning. He last appeared in the major leagues with the Orioles back in 2015.

A. Ramos - RP

COL

Jon Heyman of MLB Network reports that free agent reliever AJ Ramos has been drawing interest and will throw for teams on Tuesday.

Ramos made it back to the major leagues, surrendering one run on four hits with three walks and one strikeout over 2 2/3 frames (three appearances), with the Rockies during the 60-game sprint season last year. He missed nearly two full years after undergoing shoulder surgery during the 2018 campaign. The 34-year-old righty owns a pristine 3.08 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 427/203 K/BB ratio across 368 2/3 innings in his career. He'll compete for an Opening Day roster spot somewhere this spring.

E. Adrianza - 3B

MIN

According to Chris Miller of the Minneapolis Star-Tribune, free agent infielder Ehire Adrianza will not be returning to the Twins next season.

It's unclear whether Adrianza has an exact destination lined up for the impending 2021 campaign, but he appears to have signaled an end to his four-year run in Minnesota with a recent Instagram post thanking the fans of the Twin Cities. The versatile 31-year-old switch-hitter owns a .244/.310/.360 triple-slash line with 16 homers and 18 stolen bases across 1,220 career plate appearances since 2013. He appeared in just 41 games, posting a lackluster .557 OPS during the truncated 2020 campaign. He’ll likely be able to latch on as a reserve utilityman and compete for a big-league roster spot this spring.

J. Taillon - SP

NYY

Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports that the Yankees are in talks with the Pirates regarding right-hander Jameson Taillon.

Well, that escalated quickly. Feinsand reported earlier that Taillon could be the next player jettisoned by the rebuilding Pirates in the next day or two as they embark on their full-scale teardown. He also notes that nothing is done yet, but the Pinstripes appear to be emerging as the frontrunners to deal for him. Jon Heyman of MLB Network reports that the two teams have been discussing a potential deal over the last few days, while Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette adds that his sources indicate the Pirates have been weighing offers from multiple teams. The 28-year-old righty missed the entire 2020 season after undergoing the second Tommy John surgery of his professional career. He's expected to be fully healthy and ready to go for the start of the upcoming 2021 campaign. He owns a 3.67 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 419/117 K/BB ratio over 466 innings (82 starts) in his major-league career.
