Yankees add veteran pitchers Michael Fulmer and John Schreiber

The New York Yankees added right-handed relief pitchers Michael Fulmer and John Schreiber to their roster in late August to bolster bullpen depth for the remainder of the season. Fulmer, a former Rookie of the Year, joined the organization after stints with the San Francisco Giants and Los Angeles Angels earlier this year. He has since recorded six strikeouts over 5.1 innings of work for New York. Schreiber, previously with the Kansas City Royals, provides a sidearm delivery style and has maintained a 3.42 ERA over 52.2 total innings this season. The additions arrive as the team manages injuries to other pitchers, including Ryan Weathers, Clarke Schmidt, and Fernando Cruz. The front office is counting on these veteran acquisitions to provide stability in the final weeks of the schedule.
