Signing Andrew Velazquez to a minor-league contract is a low-risk move for the Yankees, providing him with a chance to return to the team he grew up cheering for.
Despite a lackluster record in the MLB, Velazquez's Bronx roots and energetic play style make him an appealing candidate for a reunion with the Yankees.
Velazquez had a difficult stint with the Yankees, posting a 59 wRC+ in 28 games but later found himself in a more substantial role with the Angels.
After spending 2024 at Triple-A with the Braves and showing potential with 16 homers, Velazquez seeks to prove himself at spring training with the Yankees.
