Braves sign RHP Proctor to minor league deal

Provided by Written on November 06, 2009

ATLANTA — Right-handed pitcher Scott Proctor has signed a
minor league contract with the Atlanta Braves after missing all
of last season recovering from elbow surgery.

The 32-year-old Proctor has pitched five years in the majors
with the New York Yankees and Los Angeles Dodgers. He began
experiencing elbow pain in 2008, causing him to miss 63 games,
and underwent Tommy John ligament replacement surgery this past
May 12.

Proctor’s best season was 2006, when he led the American League
with 83 appearances and big league relievers with 102 1-3
innings. He went 6-4 with one save and a 3.52 ERA for the
Yankees that year.

Proctor will attend the Braves’ spring camp as a non-roster
invitee.
