Yankees made another trade for catching depth, acquiring Jose Trevino from the Rangers in exchange for once-promising right-hander Albert Abreu and minor league lefty Robert Ahlstrom.
TAMPA — On a day when Kyle Higashioka went deep two more times, the Yankees made another trade for catching depth, acquiring Jose Trevino from the Rangers in exchange for once-promising right-hander Albert Abreu and minor league lefty Robert Ahlstrom, a 2021 draft pick.Trevino is entering his fifth year in the majors and had a meager .607 OPS in 302 plate appearances last season., as recently acquired Ben Rortvedt is out with an oblique injury and won’t be ready for the start of the season.
The 24-year-old Rortvedt came to the Yankees in the deal with Minnesota that also brought Josh Donaldson and Isiah Kiner-Falefa in exchange for Gary Sanchez and Gio Urshela.Paul J. Bereswill Abreu was out of options, meaning he couldn’t be sent down without clearing waivers. The 26-year-old was once considered a top prospect, but hadn’t sustained any success in the majors.in Saturday’s 10-0 rain-shortened win over Atlanta at Steinbrenner Field.“I mean, let’s bring some of those north [to New York] now,’’ Aaron Boone said of Higashioka’s power surge.
Rortvedt is a left-handed hitter, which could lead to something of a platoon, but the 24-year-old hasn’t shown that he can hit in the majors. “He’s in a good spot,’’ Boone said. “He’s confident. We need him.”
