Peter Strzelecki was recently designated for assignment by the Milwaukee Brewers and subsequently signed to a minor-league deal by the Yankees organization. He made his Triple-A debut with Scranton/WB, throwing a clean inning against Worcester. Strzelecki mixed a sinker, changeup, curveball, and sweeper, posting multiple breaking balls above 3000 RPMs. His changeup generated his first strikeout in the organization.
