Set for Yankees debut Mayza signed a major-league contract and was selected to the Yankees 26-man roster Friday.

Impact Mayza inked a minor-league deal with the Yankees on July 10 and has since been pitching for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, posting a 2.16 ERA across 8.1 innings. The left-hander shouldn't be expected to handle high-leverage work in what will be his first MLB action since June 28.

Reaches deal with Yankees Mayza agreed Wednesday with the Yankees on a minor-league contract, Brendan Kuty and Katie Woo of The Athletic report.

Impact Cut loose by the Blue Jays after clearing waivers last week, Mayza was quickly able to find a new home within the American League East. The Yankees plan to assign Mayza to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre initially, but he might not have to wait long for a big-league call-up while New York currently has five relievers on the injured list. Mayza turned in a 1.52 ERA in 69 appearances with Toronto in 2023 but had taken a big step back in 2024 prior to being cut, accruing an 8.03 ERA, 1.95 WHIP and 16:12 K:BB across 24.2 innings in 35 appearances.

Released by Toronto The Blue Jays released Mayza on Friday.

Impact Mayza was DFA'd by the Jays on Saturday after posting an 8.03 ERA in 24.2 innings, and he'll now be jettisoned out of the organization and into the open market. The 32-year-old southpaw posted a 1.52 ERA in 53.1 frames just a year ago, so he could still draw some interest in free agency, but his next opportunity will likely come in the form of a minor-league contract.

DFA'd by Jays The Blue Jays designated Mayza for assignment Saturday.

Impact Mayza allowed five runs to score without recording an out during Friday's loss to the Yankees, inflating his ERA to 8.03 through 24.2 innings -- a far cry from his 1.52 ERA last season. The 32-year-old southpaw's drastic regression has now cost him his spot on the Jays' 40-man roster, though he could still receive some attention on the waiver wire from bullpen-needy teams hoping to unlock Mayza's previous form. Jose Cuas was recalled from Triple-A Buffalo to fill the open spot in Toronto's bullpen.

Nabs eighth hold Mayza walked one batter in a scoreless sixth inning Wednesday to record his eighth hold of the season in a win over the White Sox.

Impact The southpaw had a bumpy start to the season, but Mayza seems to have steadied his ship in May. He's been scored upon only once in his last seven appearances, posting a 1.69 ERA and 1.31 WHIP over 5.1 innings during that stretch with three holds. The 32-year-old remains the top option in the Toronto bullpen from the left side.
