Yankees Sign Free Agent Reliever David Herndon, Immediately After Cutting Him
The Yankees cut David Herndon from their 40-man roster. Then, the Yankees signed David Herndon. Huh? Okay, they had a good reason. But, I think the Phillies would have taken this approach with Herndon and kept him in the organization for depth if they had the chance.
This is how it worked. The Yankees, like the Blue Jays and like the Phillies, did not feel that David...
Former Phillies Reliever David Herndon Changed Teams Again
Poor David Herndon. He is being tossed around like a frisbee. The Toronto Blue Jays were the latest team to try to pass Herndon through waivers, and like the Phillies, it did not work. He probably will be passed around again.
It was the New York Yankees this time who claimed Herndon. With Rafael Soriano and Mariano Rivera floating in free agency, the Yankees had roster space...

Blue Jays Claim Herndon
After a season which was mostly lost to an injured elbow, David Herndon will head north. He has been claimed by the Toronto Blue Jays off waivers.

Herndon has pitched to a career high 4.70 ERA but is also posting a career high in K/9 IP and low in BB/9 IP. At best, Herndon has been a reliable reliever whose peripherals (1.95 xFIP, .391 BABIP) indicate...
Will David Herndon be a Bullpen Mainstay?
When it comes to the bullpen, all anyone will talk about is Ryan Madson. Rightfully so, he could be on his way out after an incredible eight-year run with the Phillies. If Madson leaves, it’ll be up to the youngsters in the Phillies bullpen to make up the difference. Sure, Ruben Amaro may bring someone else in, but this youth movement for the relief corps will eventually take center...
