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.

Having already added Ryan McMahon to boost their production at third base, the New York Yankees may not be done dealing with the Colorado Rockies leading up to the trade deadline on Thursday.
