Right-handed pitcher Jonathan Lo\u00e1isiga has signed a one-year contract with the New York Yankees, which guarantees him $5 million as he returns from Tommy John surgery. He could earn up to $10.5 million over the next two seasons.<\/p>\n

Lo\u00e1isiga\u2019s deal includes a $500,000 signing bonus and a $4.5 million salary for the upcoming season. The Yankees also have a $5 million team option for 2026, with no buyout. He could earn an additional $500,000 in performance bonuses in 2026: $100,000 for pitching 50 innings and then $100,000 for every additional five innings up to 70.<\/p>\n

Pitching coach Matt Blake mentioned last week that the 30-year-old Lo\u00e1isiga could return to action in late April or May after undergoing Tommy John surgery on May 1.<\/p>\n

\u201cI imagine him being one of the high-leverage guys,\u201d Blake said. \u201cObviously, we got to take some time to get him right, make sure we don\u2019t rush him into competition.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lo\u00e1isiga had a $2.5 million salary in 2023 during his final season of arbitration eligibility, after which he became a free agent.<\/p>\n

He made three relief appearances in the first week of the season but was placed on the injured list due to a strained right flexor muscle. He then had Tommy John surgery performed by the team\u2019s physician, Dr. Christopher Ahmad.<\/p>\n

In 2023, Lo\u00e1isiga was limited to 17 games because of right elbow inflammation, which kept him out from April 5 to August 8.<\/p>\n

For his career, Lo\u00e1isiga has a record of 19-11 with a 3.44 ERA across 11 starts and 152 relief appearances over seven seasons. He has struck out 207 batters and walked 72 in 219 2\/3 innings. In 2023, his sinker averaged 97.8 mph.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
