The New York Yankees announced today they have agreed to a one-year contract with right-handed pitcher Brian Bruney, avoiding arbitration.
Bruney, 26, was 3-0 with one save and a 1.83 ERA in 32 appearances (one start) with the Yankees in 2008, missing over three months (April 25-August 1) with a Lisfranc injury in his right foot. He held opponents to a .153 (18-for-118) batting average, ranking fifth in the Majors among pitchers with at least 30.0IP, and kept the opposition scoreless in 27 of his 32 appearances. Originally selected by Arizona in the 12th round of the 2000 First-Year Player Draft, Bruney was signed by the Yankees as a minor league free agent on July 1, 2006.
