Open Extended ReactionsNEW YORK -- The Yankees on Friday acquired third baseman Ryan McMahon from the Colorado Rockies in exchange for minor league pitchers Griffin Herring and Josh Grosz, the teams announced. Defensively, McMahon is a Gold Glove-caliber third baseman whose four Outs Above Average is third in the majors this season. "He has had some ups and downs offensively this year," Yankees manager Aaron Boone said of McMahon. He leaves that environment for New York's pressure cooker and a club with World Series aspirations, a change the Yankees hope can help McMahon. With third base addressed, the Yankees will seek to acquire pitchers to bolster their rotation and bullpen.
