Nestor Cortes Jr.'s baseball career

The talented pitcher was chosen by the Yankees in the 36th round of the MLB draft in 2013. That year, he made his professional debut with the Rookie-level Gulf Coast League team, the Gulf Coast Yankees. Cortes was chosen by the Baltimore Orioles in the 2017 Rule 5 draft from the Yankees organization.

In 2018, Cortes was included on the Orioles Opening Day roster as a bullpen pitcher. On March 31, he made his major league debut. However, the Orioles traded Cortes back to the Yankees soon. He pitched for the Yankees in 2019, and the Seattle Mariners in the following year.

The later part of 2020 witnessed Cortes signing a minor league contract with Yankees, but was promoted to the major leagues in May 2021. Since then, he has been a part of the franchise.

So far, Cortes has a 24-11 record, with a 3.82 ERA and 413 strikeouts throughout his career. In the 2023 season, the 28-year-old registered a 5–2 record with a 4.97 ERA and 67 strikeouts.
