Nationals and Yankees Among Teams Scouting Carlos Silva

March 12, 2011 8:37 pm By Neil 24 Comments

According to a report from Bruce Levine, numerous scouts, including three from the Washington Nationals, were on hand Saturday to see Carlos Silva face the Reds. According to Levine, the Yankees are following all of Silva’s outings. Silva had success under Larry Rothschild, who is now the Yankees’ pitching coach, last season. Carlos Silva turned in his best performance of the spring Saturday. Silva completed five innings of work and allowed four runs on five hits with two strikeouts and no walks. Silva gave up a pair of home run, a double and a triple but retired the Reds in order in three of the five innings.

Carlos Silva is slated to make $11.5 million this season … the Cubs are responsible for $6 million of his salary. The Cubs and Silva have a mutual option for 2012 worth $12 million that includes a $2 million buyout.
