The Colorado Rockies traded Ryan McMahon to the New York Yankees and his teammates showed him respect as he walked out the door.

Ryan McMahon is very happy to be playing for the New York Yankees. The Yankees picked him up in a trade with the Colorado Rockies.

The Yankees have had a need for a third baseman since releasing DJ LeMahieu and moving Jazz Chisholm back to the keystone. As of late, manager Aaron Boone has used a combination of Oswald Peraza and Jorbit Vivas at the hot corner. Clearly New York, now 4 ½ games back in the American League East, was not satisfied with that arrangement.
