Yankees' Tony Zych: Joins team's 60-man pool
The New York Yankees announced Sunday that Tony Zych was included in their 60-man roster pool.Once a dependable arm out of the Seattle bullpen, Zych hasn't appeared at the MLB level since the 2017 season while tending to a number of arm injuries over the past few years. He was forced to settle for a minor-league deal with the Yankees this winter as a result, but the super-sized roster pool will now give him a chance to resurface in the majors in 2020. Expect Zych to settle for lower-leverage work initially as he slots into a deep Yankees bullpen.

Mariners' Tony Zych: Begins camp in limited fashion
Tony Zych (elbow) underwent a minor procedure in the offseason and will begin spring training a little behind schedule, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.Zych was shut down at the tail end of the 2017 campaign after experiencing elbow soreness and it appears as though he had some sort of surgery to correct the problem in recent months. Prior to going down, the right-hander posted a 2.66 ERA and 1.25 WHIP over 40.2 innings of relief, which was far and away the most time he's spent on a big-league mound in his career. He will likely be back on the mound in a few weeks, but his status should be monitored throughout the spring camp.
