KISSIMMEE, Fla. — The New York Yankees reached into the remainder of the free-agent market to bolster their ailing rotation, agreeing Monday to a minor league contract with Gio Gonzalez. “Being a couple guys down, to have a guy like him still available, a luxury to be able to add him just for some depth,” Yankees manager Aaron Boone said. Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said Gonzalez can opt out of his deal if he’s not added to the major league roster by April 20. Aaron Boone plans to have dinner with his dad when the Yankees travel across Florida to the east coast later this week. “I’m sure I’ll dive in on him a little bit,” Aaron Boone said.
