NextImg:Yankees sign Jose Rojas to add another utility option

The Yankees continue to add versatile depth pieces beyond their 40-man roster.

The club signed utilityman Jose Rojas to a minor league contract with an invite to major league spring training, The Post’s Joel Sherman confirmed on Thursday.

Rojas will earn $750,000 if he is in the majors and $180,000 in the minors.

The 30-year-old Rojas, who hits left-handed, spent 2023 playing in the Korean Baseball Organization, batting .253 with a .819 OPS.

He has 83 games of major league experience, all with the Angels from 2021-2022, in which he hit .188 with a .584 OPS.

In the big leagues, Rojas has made starts at third base, second base, right field and left field, providing some value with his versatility.

The Yankees lost utilityman Isiah Kiner-Falefa to the Blue Jays in free agency, but have a number of candidates to fill his role, led by Oswaldo Cabrera.

Along with Rojas, the Yankees have signed utilityman Josh VanMeter, infielder Kevin Smith and outfielder Luis Gonzalez to minor league contracts to bolster their position player depth.

They also claimed infielder Jeter Downs off waivers earlier this offseason.
