Franchy Cordero News
Free-agent outfielder Franchy Cordero and the New York Yankees agreed on a split major-league deal on Wednesday, according to sources. The deal will pay him $1 million in the big leagues and $180,000 in the minors in 2023. Barring another move, Cordero would be on the team's Opening Day roster. Cordero hit over .400 in Grapefruit League action for the Baltimore Orioles, but he was released on Monday and now latches on with the Yankees. The 28-year-old left-handed-hitting Dominican spent last year with the Boston Red Sox, slashing .219/.300/.397 with a career-high eight home runs, 29 RBI, 36 runs scored and four steals in 84 games played. He has a career .221/.290/.386 slash line in six big-league seasons and will represent outfield depth for the Yanks this year. Cordero is probably only worth grabbing in AL-only affairs.
Boston Red Sox outfielder Franchy Cordero (ankle) jammed his right leg into the left field wall in the fifth inning of Monday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays and had to be carted off the field. The official diagnosis was a right ankle sprain. Skipper Alex Cora said Cordero will undergo an MRI exam on Tuesday to see if there's ligament damage. "In the beginning, it felt really bad, but as I was coming to the clubhouse it was feeling better," said Cordero. "At first, I felt it was something worse than it was." The 28-year-old went 0-for-2 with two strikeouts before departing, so it was a rough day for Cordero. He's unlikely to play on Tuesday, but it remains to be seen if he'll miss the rest of the season. With Triston Casas now on the major league roster, Cordero is unlikely to see regular playing time in Boston's outfield.
Boston Red Sox outfielder Franchy Cordero is starting in right field and is hitting leadoff for the first time this year on Wednesday against Cincinnati Reds right-hander Hunter Greene. Cordero has gone 11-for-38 (.290) with two home runs and nine RBI in the last 14 days, and he's earned a look a top Boston's batting order. His slash line on the year is up to .260/.322/.442 with two homers, 12 RBI and 16 runs scored in 87 plate appearances. The 27-year-old Dominican has a tough matchup with the flame-throwing Greene on tap on Wednesday, but his fantasy stock is certainly rising, and he's in the midst of a six-game stretch that has seen him go 6-for-18 with a homer, two doubles and three RBI.
