Yankees Decline Lou Trivino's $5 Million Option, Opening Free Agency

The decision follows two years of injuries for Trivino, who has not pitched in the majors since Tommy John surgery in 2023.

Lou Trivino's club option was declined by the Yankees, making him a free agent after missing two consecutive MLB seasons.
Acquired from the Athletics in 2023, Trivino had a 1.66 ERA in 25 relief appearances for the Yankees before his injury troubles.
Trivino underwent Tommy John surgery in May 2023 and faced setbacks during his rehab, limiting him to minor league play in 2024.
The Yankees made several 40-man roster moves, adding Yerry de los Santos, J.C. Escarra, and Taylor Trammell from Triple-A.
Yankees prospect Caleb Durbin is nearing a record in the Arizona Fall League with 22 stolen bases, showcasing his potential for 2025.
