Ex-Yankees pitcher is on the mend, hopes to re-sign with Red Sox

Nathan Eovaldi is on the mend and looking ahead to his future. The 32-year-old will hit the open market after the World Series. He is coming off a four-years, $68 million contract with the Boston Red Sox.

Eovaldi is on the injured list with shoulder inflammation. He threw a simulated game Tuesday afternoon. Eovaldo spent the 2015 and 2016 seasons with the Yankees. Last year, he finished fourth in voting for the American League Cy Young Award. He is 5-3 with a 4.15 ERA in 18 starts this season.
