Yates pitched in the Athletics organization until being traded to the New York Mets with Mark Guthrie on December 1, 2001, for David Justice.[4] His 2002 season was limited by Tommy John surgery.[5]

Yates split the 2003 season between three minor league teams. He participated in spring training the next year,[6] and debuted against the Montreal Expos on April 9, 2004.[7][8] Ten days later, Yates earned his first major league victory in another appearance against Montreal.[9][10] By May, Yates had returned to the minor leagues to pitch as a reliever.[11] Yates underwent rotator cuff surgery and did not pitch during the 2005 season.[12][13]

Atlanta Braves

Yates was released by the Mets at the conclusion of the 2005 season, and joined the Baltimore Orioles before the 2006 season, participating in spring training as a non-roster invitee.[13] He was subsequently released from the Orioles, and signed with the Atlanta Braves on May 3, 2006.[14] Yates recorded the first save of his career on July 14, 2006, in a 15–12 extra-inning win over the San Diego Padres.[15] He made the Braves' Opening Day roster in 2007,[16] and agreed to terms with the team prior to the start of the 2008 season.[17]

Pittsburgh Pirates

Yates was traded to the Pittsburgh Pirates on March 26, 2008, in exchange for minor league pitcher Todd Redmond.[18] He made 72 appearances for Pittsburgh during the 2008 campaign, registering a 6–3 record and 4.66 ERA with 63 strikeouts across Page Template:Fraction/styles.css has no content.73+1⁄3 innings pitched.[19]

Yates pitched in 15 games for the Pirates in 2009, struggling to an 0–2 record and 7.50 ERA with 9 strikeouts over 12 innings of work.[20] On July 16, 2009, it was announced that Yates would miss the remainder of the season after having a second Tommy John procedure, performed by James Andrews.[21] On October 27, Yates was removed from the 40-man roster and sent outright to the Triple-A Indianapolis Indians, but rejected the assignment and elected free agency.[22][23]

Yates elected free agency following the season on November 2, 2011.
