Back in Bronx on two-year deal Kahnle signed a two-year, $11.5 million deal with the Yankees on Tuesday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports. Impact Kahnle owns a 3.78 career ERA across 290.1 major-league innings, but just 13.2 of those innings have come in the last three seasons, as he's dealt with Tommy John surgery and other arm troubles. The 33-year-old righty finds himself back in a spot where he's had success in the past, as he spent parts of four seasons as a Yankee, notably producing a 3.67 ERA and 35.5 percent strikeout rate in 2019. Kahnle has only five career saves and probably won't add too many to that total this season, but he could feature regularly in the seventh and eighth innings if he pitches well.
