Yankees could part ways with struggling 6-year veteran hurler, per report

Yankees Consider Parting Ways with Struggling Reliever

The New York Yankees may part ways with struggling veteran reliever Mark Leiter Jr. after leaving him off the ALDS roster.

The Yankees need to make adjustments to their roster this offseason after losing to the Toronto Blue Jays in the ALCS, and the bullpen is a key area to focus on. The bullpen struggled in the series against the Blue Jays, particularly in Game 1.

Despite having a potent offense, the pitching staff will be a major point of emphasis this offseason. The Yankees made additions to their bullpen at the trade deadline, including David Bednar and Camilo Doval, but still have work to do.

No official statement has been made by the Yankees.
