More Leiter Fluid For Red Sox Hitters
Al will start for Gotham on Sunday versus Tim Wakefield.
Leiter, 39, was designated for assignment by the Marlins on Thursday. The team had 10 days to release or trade the left-hander, who was 3-7, 6.64 ERA this year as a starter and reliever. Location, not velocity, has been the problem for the veteran lefty. He could turn it around for the Yankees, although location issues can also be a sign of age related decline.
