Yankees closer David Robertson has turned down the team's one-year, $15.3 million qualifying offer, according to CBSSports.com Baseball Insider Jon Heyman. If Robertson chooses to sign with another team, the Yankees will receive draft-pick compensation.
Robertson had a career-high 39 saves in 2014, which was his first full season as the team's closer in place of the retired Mariano Rivera. He had a 4-5 record, 3.08 ERA and 1.06 WHIP over 63 outings. He also struck out 13.4 batters per nine innings.
