Yates remains in the mix for a spot in the Opening Day bullpen, the New York Post reports.
With the Yankees' recent cuts from big league camp, Yates appears to be one of five relievers still in play for presumably two remaining spots in the club's bullpen. He's been terrific in spring training, stating his case with 6.1 scoreless innings to go along with an 8:1 K:BB and a minuscule 0.47 WHIP.
