Billy Butler signs with Yankees

Billy Butler

Billy Butler’s unemployment stint did not last very long.

The DH signed with the New York Yankees on Wednesday, just days after being released by the Oakland A’s. FOX’s Ken Rosenthal says the Yankees will use Butler against lefties. They got him as a platoon guy specifically for the next few weeks, as they will face multiple southpaws.
