Yankees Shock Baseball World by Snatching Amed Rosario from Nationals in Stunning Trade Deal
NEW YORK — The scuffling New York Yankees added infield depth on Saturday night, acquiring Amed Rosario from the Washington Nationals for pitcher Clayton Beeter and a minor leaguer.
“When I heard where I was going, I kind of didn’t believe it,” Rosario said through an interpreter in Minnesota, where the Nationals beat the Twins 9-3. “I mean, at some point I kind of knew I was going to get traded, but I didn’t know it was going to be today.”
The move came hours after New York said star slugger Aaron Judge is headed to the injured list – and one day after the Yankees obtained third baseman Ryan McMahon from the Colorado Rockies for two pitching prospects.
