Igarashi

Not a big surprise, as Igarashi was knocked around for nine runs on 15 hits over 9 1/3 innings this spring. It’s not clear if he’ll stay with the Pirates in the minors or try his luck elsewhere.

Igarashi owns a 5.74 career ERA and 1.71 career WHIP and was knocked around for nine runs on 15 hits over 9 1/3 innings this spring, but the Jays evidently see something in him. He’s expected to go to Triple-A Las Vegas.

Igarashi, 32, has posted a brutal 5.74 ERA and 1.71 WHIP in 69 career major league innings. He’s doubtful to suddenly figure it all out in the Pittsburgh ‘pen.

The agreement was reported last week, then finalized by the Pirates on Tuesday morning. Igarashi owns a rough 5.74 career ERA and 1.71 career WHIP, but he’ll try to turn things around with Pittsburgh. The deal carries an invitation to major league spring training.

Igarashi appeared in just one game for the Bombers, giving up a run on a hit and two walks. He’s been dominant at Triple-A this season, but it hasn’t carried over in his brief time in the majors with the Yanks and Blue Jays.

That was quick. Igarashi was just called up Friday but earned his walking papers after allowing two runs in each of his two appearances.

Igarashi owns a 5.74 career ERA and 1.71 WHIP, but he’s been dominant at Las Vegas this season, posting a 1.29 ERA and 28/3 K/BB ratio over 21 innings. He’ll work in middle relief.

He was up for just one day and didn’t appear in a game. Igarashi will return to a 2.61 ERA and 15/4 K/BB ratio at the Triple-A level.

Igarashi’s previous stint with the Yanks only lasted a couple of days. He has a 2.61 ERA and 15/4 K/BB ratio at the Triple-A level since being claimed off waivers from the Blue Jays about a month ago. He’ll pitch in middle relief.

Igarashi was claimed off waivers from the Blue Jays in late May. He’s done pretty well in the minor leagues this season but was sent off by Toronto after two ugly big-league appearances. The Yanks will hope for the best.
