The New York Yankees acquired third baseman Ryan McMahon from the Colorado Rockies on Friday for prospects ahead of the trade deadline.

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.

McMahon isn’t the perfect solution at the hot corner. He strikes out too much (leading the National League with 127 this season), his swing-and-miss tendencies are a red flag and his numbers away from hitter-friendly Coors Field aren’t particularly impressive.
