The deal will pay Green $8.5 million over the next two seasons and includes options for two more years after that.The 31-year-old was forced off the mound last May by an injury that required Tommy John Surgery.

The New York bullpen also features Jonathan Loaisiga, Tommy Kahnle, Wandy Peralta, and Lou Trivino, to name a few. There are also several names remaining on the free agent reliever market should the Yankees choose to do any bullpen bolstering.
