The AP has released details of the minor league contract signed by the former AL rookie of the Year. He is guaranteed 66,000, if he makes the 40 man roster he will recieve 800,000 and an additional 300,000 in performance bonuses based on plate appearances from 100-375. He is also part of a trivia question as he beat out Hideki Matsui for the rookie of the Year in 03. Cody Ransom seems to be the only competition for the backup/utility infielder role that he is vying for.
The Yankees generally announce all their signings and Spring Training invitees at the same time. I would expect to hear about the guys coming to camp in the next couple of weeks.
