The New York Yankees have an agreement with left-handed pitcher JA Happ on a two-year deal with a third year vesting option according to SNY's Andy Martino.

The deal would keep Happ in New York after the Yankees acquired him from the Toronto Blue Jays at last year's trade deadline.

In 11 starts for the Yankees down the stretch last season, Happ finished with a 7-0 record, 2.69 earned run average, and 63 strikeouts in 63.2 innings. Combined with his Blue Jays totals, the 36-year-old finished last season with a 3.65 ERA and 193 strikeouts in 177.2 innings pitched.

Happ is ranked 16th on this winter's Top 50 Free Agent List compiled by TSN Baseball Insider Steve Phillips and TSN Baseball Reporter Scott Mitchell.
