Yankees Land Powerhouse García | New York Yankees News
Description
The Yankees pulled off a blockbuster trade before the deadline, acquiring power-hitting lefty Luis García Jr. from the Nationals in exchange for four right-handed pitchers. At just 26, García is crushing it this season, leading the NL in slugging with 23 homers and career highs in both homers and RBIs — especially stepping up with Cody Bellinger sidelined. Signed through 2027, he’s poised to be a key everyday bat against righties. The Nationals, who drafted him at 16, were expecting this move and he’s grateful for his time there — but this is a huge upgrade for the Yankees as they push toward October.
