David Herndon agrees to split contract
David Herndon - R - New York Yankees
Nov. 20, 2012 - 6:55 PM ET

Yankees signed RHP David Herndon to a split contract.

The Yanks claimed Herndon off waivers earlier this month, but he declared free agency after being outrighted. The 27-year-old right-hander won't be ready until midseason due to Tommy John surgery but can make $750,000 if he eventually works his way onto the major league roster.
