Yankees Acquire LHP Ryan Weathers from Marlins to Bolster Rotation

The New York Yankees acquired left-handed pitcher Ryan Weathers, 26, from the Miami Marlins for four minor-leaguers: Dillon Lewis, Brendan Jones, Dylan Jasso, and Juan Matheus. Weathers, a former 1st-round pick, finished 2025 with a 3.99 ERA and 1.28 WHIP over 8 starts, limited by forearm and lat strains but is now fully recovered. He is expected to bolster the Yankees' rotation, which will start the season without Gerrit Cole and Carlos Rodon due to elbow injuries. Weathers signed a one-year, $1.35M deal for 2026 and is under control until 2029.
