Looking At Hanner
Hanner has been called up to the Yankees two times this year.
He made his MLB debut last month.
That said, the 27-year-old has gone 0-0 with an 11.81 ERA in four games.
Joel Sherman of The New York Post had written (on December 11, 2025): “Yankees signed reliever Bradley Hanner to a minor league deal with invite to spring training. Will earn $800K if in the majors.”
While Hanner has struggled in the MLB, he has been a very good Triple-A pitcher this year.
Right now, he is 6-3 with a 2.35 ERA in 46 games.
Looking At The Yankees On Friday
The Yankees are the second-place team in the American League East with an 88-64 record in 152 games.
They have won seven out of their last ten games (and are 46-32 in 78 games on the road).
Following their series in Arizona, the Yankees will return home to host the Tampa Bay Rays on Tuesday in the Bronx.
