Reports: Yanks reach 3-year deal with reliever Ottavino

The New York Yankees have reached a deal with free agent relief pitcher Adam Ottavino for three years, $27 million, according to multiple reports.

The deal is pending a physical.

The 33-year-old right-hander spent the past seven seasons with the Colorado Rockies and is coming off a 6-4 campaign with an ERA of 2.43 and 0.991 WHIP in 75 appearances. He was one of the most coveted free agent relievers this offseason.

Ottavino has a 3.68 ERA for his career, which started in St. Louis in 2010.

Ottavino would join a stocked Yankees bullpen that features Aroldis Chapman, Zach Britton and Dellin Betances.
