Yankees Make Surprising Trade for Outfielder Alex Verdugo

The New York Yankees have acquired outfielder Alex Verdugo from the Boston Red Sox in exchange for reliever Greg Weissert and minor league pitchers Richard Fitts and Nicholas Judice. The trade provides the Yankees with a left-handed hitting outfielder to add balance to their lineup, while the Red Sox offload Verdugo's salary projection and look to fill the vacancy in right field. Weissert brings controllable pitching help to Boston's bullpen, while Fitts and Judice offer potential for the future.

The New York Yankees have demoted Greg Weissert, Ian Hamilton, and Willie Calhoun to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, leaving three roster spots still up for grabs. Outfielders Estevan Florial and Rafael Ortega are both set to fly with the Yankees to New York, but there is only room for one of them on the 26-man roster. The Yankees may be looking for outside help for the final bullpen spot, and Jhony Brito is likely to fill the fifth starter roster spot.
