Major League Baseball is buzzing about the Chicago White Sox trading Jose Quintana to the Chicago Cubs in exchange for a plethora of prospects. However, in the midst of all that, Brian Cashman was in “ninja mode”, and decided to make a minor trade of his own.
Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports reported the Yankees traded LHP Tyler Webb to the Milwaukee Brewers in exchange for 1B Garrett Cooper:
Sources: #Yankees and #Brewers have made a trade. LHP Tyler Webb heading to MIL.
With the Yankees sustaining a plethora of injuries at first base this season, it seems like the trade was made to add first base depth to the organization.
