Yankees Acquire Utilityman Amed Rosario in Trade from Nationals
The New York Yankees have acquired utility infielder Amed Rosario from the Washington Nationals in exchange for minor league prospects Clayton Beeter and Browm Martinez. Rosario, a versatile right-handed hitter, is batting .270 with five home runs this season and boasts an .816 OPS against left-handed pitching, making him a good fit for a platoon role against lefties. Expected to be utilized primarily at third base, second base, and outfield corners, Rosario will become a free agent after this season and marks the Yankees' second infield acquisition of the weekend.
