"Yankees Make Bold Moves at Trade Deadline, Bolster Outfield Power"

The New York Yankees, despite recent struggles, are in the thick of the Wild Card race and should make moves at the trade deadline to improve their left field and pitching situation. While several rental targets have already been taken off the board, the Yankees could potentially trade Harrison Bader and Clayton Beeter to the Minnesota Twins for outfielder Matt Wallner, who has shown promise in Triple-A. This trade could benefit both teams as the Twins are contending for a playoff spot and the Yankees need a boost to stay competitive.

Joey Gallo Lands on Twins' Injured List.

The Minnesota Twins have placed Joey Gallo on the 10-day injured list due to a left hamstring strain. Outfielder Kyle Garlick was called up from Triple-A to take Gallo’s spot on the active roster. Gallo's left-handed bat has been revived in the Twin Cities this season, with 11 homers over 165 plate appearances. This is the second time injuries have stalled Gallo’s bounce-back season, but since he was somewhat able to play with the strain, he might not be out of action for too long.

Max Kepler Lands on Twins' Injured List for 10 Days.

The Minnesota Twins have placed outfielder Max Kepler on the 10-day injured list due to right patellar tendinitis. Kepler's absence adds to the team's injury woes, with Alex Kirilloff and Gilberto Celestino also on the IL, and Byron Buxton limited to DH duty. In Kepler's place, the Twins have called up outfielder Matt Wallner from Triple-A. Kepler's injury is a setback for the player, who is in the last guaranteed season of his five-year, $35MM contract with the Twins.
