NEW YORK − Nearly a week ahead of MLB's July 31 trade deadline, the Yankees addressed one glaring need, at third base. On Friday afternoon, lefty-hitting Ryan McMahon was acquired from the Colorado Rockies in exchange for two Yankees minor league pitching prospects.

Ryan McMahon arrived in The Bronx during Friday’s game after the Yankees arranged for an Uber to transport him from Baltimore, where he’d been with the Rockies before the trade.

The New York Yankees' two-year nightmare at the hot corner is finally over. And that comes at the expense of the Colorado Rockies.
