Yankees acquire ex-Mets infielder Amed Rosario: Nationals veteran reportedly traded to N.Y. for two prospects

New York Yankees have acquired the Washington National Veteran Field Rosario player for the launcher Clayton Beeter and Voltigeur Browm Martinez, teams announced. Rosario is the second inner field player that the Yankees exchanged this weekend: Friday, they sent two launchers to Colorado Rockies in exchange for the third goal player Ryan McMahon.

Rosario, 29, struck 270 / .310 / .426 (109 ops +) with five circuits and a stolen base in 46 games as a member of the Nationals. He began his career with the dishes, spending four seasons in Queens, before bouncing in the league since 2021. CBS Sports ranked it as the 30th best sales candidate on Friday, observing the following::

Rosario continues to be allergic to right -handed pitch, walks and good defense, but it is more interesting than his nomadic career indicates. Indeed, improving the speed of bats allowed him to hit the ball stronger than usual this season. In turn, he sports a career isolated isolated slugging. A team looking for a help against the left -handed pitch could do worse than to give it a ride.

Rosario could, in theory, form a peloton with the aforementioned McMahon. McMahon, for his career, only displayed Ops .686 when opposed to a left -handed launcher. Alternatively, Rosario could play a super-utility role, seeing action in various positions while slotting against Southpaws.

Beeter, 26, made five appearances in the big league dating from last season. In 21 outings of minor leagues this year at different levels, he compiled an MPM of 3.80 and a withdrawal ratio. He has animated things, but he has an average of seven goals on a ball for nine sleeves, throwing doubt about his ability to launch enough strikes to have a real career.

Martinez, 18, struck .404 / .507 / .632 in 18 games as part of the Dominican summer league team in New York. It was not classified by Baseball America among the 30 best prospects for the minor league of Yankees in their recent update.

The Yankees, it should be noted, lost again against the phillies of Philadelphia on Saturday to drop them at 56-48, 6 games behind the Blue Jays of the Al East. Worse, they announced that the star Aaron Judge was heading for the injured list due to a tense flexor. Manager Aaron Boone said he hoped that the judge would only miss the minimum 10 days.
