Earlier today the Yankees acquired IF Wendell Rijo from the Brewers to complete last month’s Erik Kratz trade, the team announced. Rijo has been assigned to High-A Tampa. He was a good prospect with the Red Sox a few years ago, but not anymore. The soon-to-be 23-year-old was hitting .200/.304/.375 (94 wRC+) in 93 Double-A plate appearances before the trade. Dudes like Kratz usually don’t fetch much.
