The Houston Astros have acquired left-handed reliever Caleb Ferguson from the New York Yankees in a trade ahead of the MLB trade deadline. Ferguson, who has struggled this season with a 5.13 ERA and 1.50 WHIP across 33.1 innings, will provide additional bullpen depth for Houston. In exchange, the Yankees will receive a minor-league player and international bonus pool money. This trade is part of a series of roster moves by both teams, including the Yankees acquiring reliever Mark Leiter Jr. from the Chicago Cubs. Despite his recent struggles, Ferguson has a career 3.66 ERA over six MLB seasons, and Houston hopes a change of scenery might help him regain form. Both teams continue to look for additional moves as the trade deadline approaches.
