NEW YORK (AP) — Third baseman Ryan McMahon was set to make his New York Yankees debut Saturday, batting eighth against Philadelphia. New York acquired the 2024 All-Star from Colorado on Friday for a pair of 22-year-old pitchers in the low minors, right-hander Josh Grosz and left-hander Griffin Herring.

In exchange for McMahon, the Rockies added a couple starting pitchers to their farm. Herring, a left-hander, was the Yankees’ No. 8 prospect, according to MLB Pipeline, while the right-handed Grosz was ranked No. 21.
