The New York Yankees agreed to an undisclosed major-league deal with free-agent right-hander Cody Poteet on Thursday. Poteet pitched for the Miami Marlins in 2021-22 and had a 4.45 ERA in 19 appearances (nine starts). He had Tommy John surgery in August of 2022, signed with the Kansas City Royals on a minor-league deal and only pitched in one game in the minors in late September of 2023. The 29-year-old will become depth for the Yankees' starting rotation and bullpen heading into spring training in 2024. In his 19 appearances for the Fish, Poteet also posted a 1.28 WHIP, 27 walks and 53 strikeouts in 58 2/3 innings pitched. Poteet won't be anywhere near the fantasy radar for spring drafts.

Miami Marlins pitcher Cody Poteet (elbow) has been transferred to the 60-day injured list to clear a spot on the 40-man roster. The 27-year-old has had multiple stints on the IL this season while dealing with elbow inflammation. Poteet has a 3.86 ERA, 1.21 WHIP, and 21:11 K/BB ratio across 28 innings (two starts) on the year.

Miami Marlins right-hander Cody Poteet (elbow) started a minor league rehab assignment on Monday with Single-A Jupiter and threw two innings. Poteet last started for the Marlins on May 25 against the Tampa Bay Rays and reported soreness in his elbow to the medical staff. The 27-year-old could be back with the Marlins later this week, barring any setbacks. Before his injury, he had a nice 2.42 ERA and 1.04 WHIP while striking out 20 and walking 11 in 26 innings in 11 appearances (two starts). Poteet will give the Marlins more bullpen depth when he returns, but he's not really on the fantasy radar coming out of the bullpen.
