Source: Yankees near trade for Jays lefty Happ

The New York Yankees are finalizing a trade for Toronto Blue Jays left-hander J.A. Happ, a source told ESPN's Jerry Crasnick.

Infielder Brandon Drury would go to Toronto along with Triple-A outfielder Billy McKinney in the deal, the source said.

Happ is 10-6 with a 4.18 ERA in 114 innings pitched for the Blue Jays this season.

The Yankees are looking to bolster their starting pitching, and Happ has had success against the Red Sox, the Yankees' chief rival in the American League East, with a 0.
