It took 500 innings in three different organizations, and did not even include the 2020 season that was stolen by the pandemic.
But nearly seven years after Matt Krook was taken by the Giants in the fourth round of the 2016 draft, he has cracked a 40-man roster.
The 28-year-old Krook is a southpaw who is especially tough on lefty batters. They hit .172 against him with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre last season. Krook was primarily a starter, but was used late in the minor league season as a reliever, a role in which he was so impressive that manager Aaron Boone said the Yankees contemplated adding him to the playoff roster.
Krook made it to Double-A in 2019 before he was left out of the Rays’ alternate site in 2020, then was scooped up by the Yankees in the minor league Rule 5 draft in December of that year. Boone said the next step for the 6-foot-4, funky lefty will be working on his command after he walked 4.74 hitters per nine innings last season. Will the next step, though, arrive through the bullpen or rotation?
