Yankees Pursue Multiple Diamondbacks Trades Amid Bullpen Struggles

The New York Yankees are actively pursuing pitching reinforcements and addressing roster holes as the trade deadline approaches, with a particular focus on the bullpen and third base. Injuries to key relievers have made the bullpen a vulnerable area, and the team is considering acquiring Oakland Athletics closer Mason Miller, a highly coveted young pitcher with multiple years of arbitration eligibility. Additionally, the Yankees have shown strong interest in Arizona Diamondbacks players, scouting pitchers Zac Gallen and Merrill Kelly, and third baseman Eugenio Suárez, who would address their pressing needs in pitching and the lineup. A proposed blockbuster trade with the Diamondbacks could send five Yankees prospects in exchange for Suárez, Kelly, and reliever Jalen Beeks, offering both offensive and pitching upgrades. Prospects like Spencer Jones are drawing trade interest due to their strong performances, adding complexity to the Yankees' decisions at the deadline. Overall, the Yankees are aggressively targeting proven talent to bolster their roster for a playoff push, while balancing the value of their rising prospects.
