Derek Holland: Holds audition for teams
Derek Holland had a throwing session for interested teams Friday, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.Holland spent all of 2022 at the Triple-A level in the Blue Jays and Red Sox organizations, posting a 5.77 ERA over 30 relief appearances. The 36-year-old hasn't gained any traction in the majors since 2018 and undoubtedly will have to accept a minor-league deal if he wants to keep pitching.

Blue Jays' Derek Holland: Joins Jays on MiLB deal
Derek Holland announced Wednesday via his personal Twitter account that he agreed to a minor-league deal with the Toronto Blue Jays.After Toronto released another MLB veteran from the Triple-A Buffalo roster Tuesday (outfielder Dexter Fowler), the organization will bring in another player with ample MLB experience to fill his spot. Holland spent spring training with Boston before reporting to Triple-A Worcester, where he produced a 6.35 ERA and 1.35 WHIP across 11.1 innings before opting out of his minor-league deal earlier this week. Holland's underwhelming numbers at Worcester means that he'll likely need a run of sustained success at Buffalo before he gets a look in the Toronto bullpen.

Red Sox's Derek Holland: Reporting to Triple-A
Derek Holland will head to Triple-A Worcester rather than exercise his right to opt out, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.Holland was allowed to head to the open market in search of a big-league opportunity elsewhere, but he'll instead remain as organizational depth for the Boston Red Sox. The 35-year-old lefty may not have had any major-league offers had he elected free agency, as he owns a 5.98 ERA over the last three seasons.

Red Sox's Derek Holland: Makes spring debut
Derek Holland struck out two over two scoreless and hitless innings in Thursday's spring training game against the Twins.Holland was recently signed by the Boston Red Sox and was making his Grapefruit League debut.

It's an uphill battle for Holland, as Boston already has a handful of lefties slated for relief roles.

Red Sox's Derek Holland: Signs minor-league deal with Boston
Derek Holland joined the Boston Red Sox as a non-roster invitee Friday, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.Holland has some solid seasons on his 14-year MLB resume, but there may not be much left in the tank for the 35-year-old lefty. His 5.07 ERA in 49.2 innings for the Tigers last season was actually his best mark since 2018. If he breaks camp in the majors, it will likely be in a low-leverage relief role.

Tigers' Derek Holland: Implodes in Sunday loss
Derek Holland (1-2) allowed four runs (three earned) in 1.2 innings to take the loss Sunday against the Twins.

The veteran lefty now has a 10.06 ERA this season and he's squarely off the fantasy radar given his poor performance and low-leverage role.

The lefty hasn't had a sub-6.00 ERA since 2018, so he'll almost certainly be limited to low-leverage situations, and possibly an occasional spot start.
