Weber (forearm) elected to become a free agent Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Weber was lifted from the Yankees' 40-man roster last week and is now out of the organization. He missed the last several months of the season with a forearm issue and it's not clear what his health situation is at the moment.

The Yankees placed Weber (forearm) on outright waivers Thursday, Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Weber pitched well for New York after being called up from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in May, but his season came to an end in early June when he was diagnosed with a right forearm strain. At last check, the 33-year-old was undergoing platelet-rich plasma treatment in an effort to avoid Tommy John surgery.

Weber (forearm) has opted for a platelet-rich injection and rehab in an attempt to avoid Tommy John surgery, per MLB.com.

EDGE Analysis

Weber has been on the shelf since feeling discomfort near his right forearm in an outing against the Dodgers on June 2. Season-ending Tommy John surgery remains a possibility, but the righty reliever is taking a conservative treatment approach with the hope that he can return to the big-league team before the end of the campaign. Weber is on the 60-day IL and can't be activated until early August, at the soonest, even if he responds well to the treatment.

The Yankees transferred Weber (forearm) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

The transaction removes Weber from the 40-man roster and opens up a spot for outfielder Billy McKinney, whose contract was purchased from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre ahead of Wednesday's game versus the White Sox. As a result of the move to the 60-day IL, Weber won't be eligible for activation until early August while he works back from a right forearm strain.

The Yankees placed Weber on the 15-day injured list Saturday with a right forearm strain.

EDGE Analysis

Weber has been one of the most reliable assets in the Yankees' bullpen since joining the team May 11, but his strained forearm will shut him down for at least 15 days. Nick Ramirez will come up from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre to take Weber's place in the bullpen.

Weber earned a 10th-inning save against Cincinnati on Saturday, striking out one batter in a perfect frame.

EDGE Analysis

The Yankees scored three runs in the top of the 10th, then turned to Weber to close things out in the bottom of the frame. He needed just 10 pitches to do so, throwing seven strikes and retiring the side in order. The save was Weber's first this season and second in his career. Though New York's closer situation remains unsettled, Weber isn't expected to see many additional chances in that role.

The Yankees selected Weber's contract from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Weber has made seven starts for SWB this season, holding a 5.77 ERA and 26:6 K:BB over 34.1 frames. He'll provide the Yanks with a fresh arm in the bullpen capable of going multiple innings.

Weber was reassigned Tuesday to the minor-league side of Yankees camp.

EDGE Analysis

Weber yielded just one run over 10.2 major-league innings with the Yankees last season and should eventually get another shot in the Bronx. For now, he is ticketed for the bullpen at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

Weber signed a minor-league deal with the Yankees on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Weber spent the 2022 season with the Yankees and threw 10.2 innings in the majors. He was designated for assignment in mid-September and rejected an outright assignment, though three months later he's back with the team. Weber may have the chance to contribute a handful of innings out of the Yankees' bullpen in 2023.

Weber declined his outright assignment to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre and elected free agency Monday.

EDGE Analysis

After the Yankees designated him for assignment Friday, Weber cleared waivers and will now look for another opportunity elsewhere. The reliever has produced a 0.84 ERA and 0.66 WHIP with three strikeouts over 10.2 innings in five appearances with Yankees this season.
