The Yankees are acquiring third baseman Ryan McMahon from the Colorado Rockies, according to multiple reports. Third base was one of the Yankees' biggest needs, and McMahon will provide lefty power (though with a lot of strikeouts) and a contract that takes him through the 2027 season.

DENVER — The Colorado Rockies have traded All-Star third baseman Ryan McMahon to the New York Yankees. In return, the Rockies will get left-handed pitcher Griffin Herring and right-handed pitcher Josh Grosz, the team said in a news release.

After years of popping up in rumors, Ryan McMahon has found his way from the Colorado Rockies to the infield-needy New York Yankees ahead of the trade deadline.
