Major League Baseball’s trade deadline is just a few days away. As the August 31st deadline approaches, the New York Yankees have been active on the trade market.
On Wednesday, the Bronx Bombers announced that they have made a trade.
The club announced that they have acquired catcher Rob Brantly from the San Francisco Giants in exchange for cash considerations. Brantly has been added to the Yankees 60-man roster, and is assigned to the team’s Alternate Site.
Brantly was selected in the third round of the 2010 MLB Amateur Draft by the Detroit Tigers.
