Yardley signed a minor-league contract with the Diamondbacks on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Yardley spent all of 2022 at the Triple-A level, collecting a 5.79 ERA over 37 appearances in the Blue Jays and Cubs organizations. The 32-year-old sidearmer has posted a 3.52 ERA across parts of three major-league seasons but struggled during his most recent stint in the big leagues in 2021 with a 6.75 ERA and 5:10 K:BB in 18.2 frames.

Yardley agreed to a minor-league contract with the Blue Jays on Wednesday, Mitch Bannon of SI.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Yardley will move on to his second organization of the season after the Cubs released him from his minor-league deal earlier this month. The 31-year-old right-hander, who made 17 MLB appearances with the Brewers in 2021, had given up nine earned runs on 12 hits and three walks over 4.2 innings at Triple-A Iowa this season before the Cubs cut him.

Yardley agreed to a minor-league contract with the Cubs on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Yardley appeared in 17 games for Milwaukee last season and posted a 6.75 ERA, and he ended up spending most of the campaign at the Triple-A level. He could earn a look on Chicago's big-league roster if he can rediscover his form from 2020, when he had a 1.54 ERA across 23.1 innings.

Yardley elected free agency Friday instead of accepting an outright assignment to Triple-A Nashville.

EDGE Analysis

Yardley struggled to a 6.75 ERA in 18.2 major-league innings this season, striking out just five batters while walking 10. That performance will likely make it hard for him to find a major-league deal this offseason, though his 1.80 ERA in 35 innings over the previous two years could help him generate at least some interest.

Yardley was outrighted to Triple-A Nashville on Friday, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Yardley was a key bullpen piece for Milwaukee in 2020 with a 1.54 ERA in 24 appearances, but he struggled this season with a 6.75 ERA. The 31-year-old spent most of 2021 at Triple-A and won't be on the Brewers' 40-man roster during the offseason.

The Brewers optioned Yardley to Triple-A Nashville on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Yardley goes back to the minors a day after being recalled, suggesting he was just a temporary fill-in before Adrian Houser (COVID-19) was activated Sunday. It remains to be seen whether the righty will get another big-league opportunity in 2021.

The Brewers recalled Yardley from Triple-A Nashville on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Yardley struggled with a 6.75 ERA in the big leagues earlier this season, but since being sent down June 18 he's posted a 3.97 ERA and 20:6 K:BB in 22.2 innings with Nashville. The righty figures to pitch in low-leverage situations, at least initially, in his latest stint with the Brewers. Tyrone Taylor (oblique) was placed on the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move Saturday.

Yardley was optioned to Triple-A Nashville on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Yardley made seven relief appearances after he was reinstated from the 10-day injured list in late May, and he posted an 8.22 ERA and 2.09 WHIP with just one strikeout in 7.2 innings. He'll now head to the minors after right-hander Zack Godley's contract was selected as part of a shuffle.

Yardley (shoulder) was activated from the 10-day injured list Tuesday, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

The righty last pitched for the Brewers on April 28 before landing on the IL with a shoulder strain. A couple rough outings are responsible for Yardley's 5.73 ERA on the season, but he did have six scoreless appearances (out of 10) and will serve as another middle-innings option out of the bullpen.

Yardley (shoulder) began a rehab assignment with Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Yardley has been out with a shoulder strain since the start of May. Given his relatively brief absence, he likely won't need too many rehab outings before he's ready to go.
