Former Yankee Player Is Still A Free Agent
The MLB Trade Deadline was on Monday.
With the deadline passed, it’s worth noting that Jon Berti still remains a free agent who is available to sign with any team in the league.
He is coming off a season where he appeared in 51 games for the Chicago Cubs.
Berti had spent the 2024 season with the Yankees.
He batted .273 with 18 hits, one home run, six RBIs, 10 runs and five stolen bases in 25 games.
The 36-year-old also appeared in four MLB playoff games.
Berti was picked in the 18th round of the 2011 MLB Draft.
He has also spent time with the Toronto Blue Jays and Miami Marlins over eight MLB seasons.
Jon Morosi of MLB Network wrote (on March 19): “Free agent INF/OF Jon Berti is generating @MLB interest after posting a 1.132 OPS with Team Italy at the @WBCBaseball. Ten teams have checked in, given Berti’s bat and versatility. He intends to sign with a contender that needs him to play multiple positions.”
