Mon Feb 24 201418:52Scott Sizemore not ready for games yet
Scott Sizemore (knee) isn't expected to play in Grapefruit League games until the end of the week or the beginning of next week.
Sizemore's recovery from a second ACL surgery has gone well to this point, but the Yankees want to ease him into things. He'll likely begin this season in the minors as he attempts to knock some rust off, but it's possible he could be an option at second base for the Yanks sooner rather than later.

Sun Jan 12 201416:51Sizemore deal contains multiple opt-outs
Joel Sherman of the New York post reports that Scott Sizemore's minor league deal with the Yankees includes a pair of opt-out clauses.
Sizemore has the option to opt-out of the deal on May 1 and August 1 if he is not in the majors. The 29-year-old infielder has always possessed a decent blend of power and speed and could be a sneaky option in the later rounds of mixed league drafts should he secure the Yankees starting job at third base.

Sun Jan 12 201411:56Yankees bring aboard Scott Sizemore
Yankees signed INF Scott Sizemore to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training.

Sizemore is coming off back-to-back lost seasons due to a tear and re-tear of the ACL in his left knee. He's healthy now, though, and lands in a good spot with the Yankees needing depth both at second and third base.

Sun Jan 12 201408:53Yankees close to signing Scott Sizemore
Ken Davidoff of the New York Post reports that the Yankees are "closing in" on a minor league deal with Scott Sizemore.
Sizemore is coming off back-to-back lost seasons due to a tear and re-tear of the ACL in his left knee. However, he's a former top prospect and just turned 29 earlier this month, so he's a worthy gamble on a non-guaranteed deal. Sizemore also lands in a good spot with the Yankees, as the Bombers are currently slated to go into the year with the injury-prone Brian Roberts as their second baseman.
