The New York Yankees sign Eric Bruntlett
The Yankees have signed 32-year old righty swinging infielder Eric Bruntlett to a minor league deal. Bruntlett played in 45 games in AAA-ball this season and he is 34 of 165 (.206 avg, .600 OPS) with 26 runs scored, 1 homer, 11 RBIs and 4 stolen bases. He has played in 512 games in his major league career and he is 182 of 789 (.231 avg, .633 OPS) with 115 runs scored, 11 homers, 72 RBIs and 31 stolen bases. This was little more than an organizational depth signing as Bruntlett isn’t much of a player.
