The New York Yankees have added another infield reinforcement at the MLB trade deadline. The club swung a trade with the Washington Nationals on Saturday for utility infielder Amed Rosario, it announced Saturday. Going back to D.C. are pitcher Clayton Beeter and outfielder Browm Martínez.

The Yankees are acquiring third baseman Ryan McMahon from the Colorado Rockies in exchange for two minor-league pitchers Griffin Herring and Josh Grosz, MLB.com's Mark Feinsand reported Friday.

The Yankees have had a need for a third baseman since releasing DJ LeMahieu and moving Jazz Chisholm back to the keystone. As of late, manager Aaron Boone has used a combination of Oswald Peraza and Jorbit Vivas at the hot corner. Clearly New York, now 4 ½ games back in the American League East, was not satisfied with that arrangement.
